Cultural Differences
Understanding how cultural differences play into a conflict or negotiation is important to ensure success and resolve any issues. If one person on your team is originally from another country, they may not react to issues in the department like those from the United States (US). Understanding their background may help you to communicate better and move the negotiation forward. If you are in a negotiation with someone from another country, it will be important to do your research about mannerisms, habits, and cultural differences between the people in the negotiation.
Keeping a diverse workforce allows for different opinions and ways of conducting business. Employees from different cultural backgrounds add depth to any business in any organization. This video discusses why diversity, equity, and inclusion are important to consider at work.
