Description
 
Culture affects our politics, relationships, how we spend and save our money, our leisure pursuits, what we eat and drink, our expectations for children, and how we approach work in our lives, to name a few examples. The book uses the organizational success model as the basis for the book, which is knowledge of specific cultures, organizational cross-cultural competence, and individual cross-cultural competence. This model is detailed throughout the chapters of the book, which include a primer on diversity, the benefits and challenges of diversity, the leadership factor, organizational change, tools for internal diversity, program enrichment, and outreach and marketing.
