Cultural Detective® Global Diversity and Inclusion Global Diversity has become something of a buzzword in recent years as organizations and individuals try to grapple with all the ways people are different and similar across the world. In the USA, differences might focus on race and gender. In Latin America, heritage and socio-economic status. In India, religion, language and caste. But Global Diversity refers to much more. Global Diversity is important on all levels—from individual differences, to organizational dynamics and team performance, to the political, economic, cultural and historical functioning of society as a whole. In a professional setting, Global Diversity helps us to lead, work and communicate more effectively across cultures; Inclusion creates an environment where everyone can bring their full selves to work and contribute fully to the success of the organization. This Cultural Detective package will highlight key issues in Global Diversity and Inclusion and best practices for managing them. Cultural Detective® Global Diversity and Inclusion contains the following stories and critical incidents: Success or Assimilation? Partners in an international management consultancy offer partnership to a senior associate but do not receive the response they anticipate. Going Global—Who Wins and Who Loses?
