Why Is Cultural Training Important for Your Organization?
A greater cultural similarity between people tends to create ease of understanding, commonality, and relatedness, which naturally facilitates easier communication. On the contrary, cultural differences between colleagues tend to highlight variances such as language, terminology, respect for authority, group identity, directness of communication and reaction to ambiguity. These differences frequently cause communication issues, including difficulty understanding someone or conveying meaning to someone, or unanticipated adverse responses to a comment. Cultural differences affect management styles, project delivery, and employee development. As the global workforce is becoming ethnically diverse, organizations must adapt and develop so that employees, key decision-makers, managers, and leaders start to make inclusive decisions in all aspects. An effective and systematic approach to building multicultural competence is a critical element in growing the organization and in achieving its key business objectives through full inclusion.
