Document Summary
By nature and upbringing we wear cultural lenses that can limit our vision, causing us to see and interpret things with the biases of our own culture. Better adapt to new cultures and work well in culturally diverse situations. Diversity describes race, gender, age, and other individual differences. Surface level diversity: consists of more visible attributes such as age, race and ethnicity. Deep level diversity: reflects differences in psychological attribute such as personalities and values. Revolving door syndrome: is high turnover among minorities and women. This can reflect a lack of inclusion in employing organizations, the degree to which they are open to anyone who can perform a job regardless of race, sexual preference, gender or any other diversity attribute. Multi cultural organization: based on pluralism and operates with inclusivity and respect for diversity. Glass ceiling: is a hidden barrier to the advancement of women and minorities.
