Abstract
The rich mix of cultures within the workforce presents both opportunities and challenges to the employers. One of the main benefits of a diverse workforce is the rich blend of perspectives, skills, talents, and ideas employees have to offer.Managing a culturally diverse workforce presents a real challenge for employers. Moulding workers with highly varied beliefs, backgrounds and biases into a unified team takes time and commitment. Stereotypes, biases and prejudices will present barriers that workers and managers must constantly overcome.
