Cultural diversity is not a problem. In fact it is strength and to be managed correctly and supported by all to create more synergy. The following are the advantages:

 

1.   The People will see and learn work ethics from each other. So, productivity will go up

2.   Since all come from different region, each carry a unique set of knowledge, which will be shared to all to enhance individuals skills,

3.   The most interesting thing is that team building is easy as all would like to have some sort of togetherness in different country setting

 

4.   It creates an environment of outward looking and the local people will also work hard to go out of the country.

I believe culturally diversity in the organisation helps organisation functioning more professionally, more wider reach and more efficient.

We learn more from the people who belong to different back ground. This way we learn to listen more and know more. we become more compassionate to other people. This helps us t understand the requirement of various groups.

We learn to agree on disagreements and how to put across our point of view in larger perspective. Diversity is strength not a problem if handled in a justified manner.

An organisation has different stake holders and different requirement for different stake holders associated with the organisation. This diversity help us to build understanding and taking people together to achieve new heights.
