Many companies have culturally diverse workforces. This applies to medium- and small-sized businesses as well as to multinational organisations. The existence of a multicultural workforce has important implications for human resource management policies. The Management of a Multicultural Workforce takes a systematic approach to relating organisational features and activities to specific aspects of national culture. Written in an accessible style for students at the MBA and final-year undergraduate level studying cross-cultural organisation and international human resource management, this book will also interest researchers and managers of international firms or those based in one country with a multicultural workforce. The first part of the book examines the significance of culture and the way in which culture influences organisations. Topics cover leadership style, organisational structure, decision making processes, major organisational activities and the significance of societal culture within which these take place. The second part concentrates on the specific issue of human resource management and culture. The emphasis is on the implications of national culture for human resource management practices in uninational and multinational firms of varying size, employing a multicultural workforce. Among the issues discussed are the options open to managers to cope with cultural diversity, the richness of such diversity, and the tensions that arise in such settings. Finally the issue of the transferability of management practices across borders is discussed.

"In today's work force - where change is the only constant and a growing number of cultures have become demanding influences - business leaders must be able to harness the resources of such human diversity. Workers from different racial and ethnic backgrounds, along with the fierce competition that businesses now face, make cultural diversity a critical issue and an undeniable resource. By the turn of the century, 70 percent of new entrants to the work force will be women and minorities, and only 30 percent will be white, American-born males." "Lee Gardenswartz and Anita Rowe give you a guide to dealing with the unprecedented challenges of being a part of a culturally expanding work force. The authors show you how to improve the level of efficiency in your organization through effective cross-cultural communication." "Managing Diversity shows how to conduct a diversity audit in your organization to design the most effective program for your needs, create a corporate culture that embraces diversity to maximize the potential of your work force, build cohesive multicultural work teams, design interesting meetings that work for everyone, and hire, train, and promote a diverse work force." "You'll also find worksheets, activities, and charts to help you implement the ideas presented. These aids follow each significant issue and give you an idea where you stand now and how to improve." "Managing Diversity helps you see why understanding the vast array of values and backgrounds in the work force is crucial and gives you the information, tools, and techniques necessary to bring the experience of those backgrounds to the job. You'll find everything you need to convey the power of a rapidly changing work force to your organization."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

This book addresses major issues related to international enterprises and the world in which they operate from a socio-political perspective. Throughout the work, the author builds a coherent picture of the 'life' of an international, multinational firm from its birth through to its later 'personal' characteristics. Drawing on the author's own research and work in this field, in addition to work of other scholars, the book spans a number of countries in Asia, Europe and North America. Divided into three parts, the author examines the internationalisation of firms in all its guises and explores the implications of socio-political forces for the management of an international firm.

Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Wirtschaftswissenschaften), language: English, abstract: Cross border activities of multinational companies face the problem of culture. The environment of international companies include several societies which may include very different cultures. Therefore, there is a very high probability that different cultures will clash during the activities of multinational. Due to the growth of multinational companies and the globalization of markets, it is necessary to constantly attract managers and employees that are suitable and able to adapt to the multicultural environment. Numerous statistics indicate that demographic diversity in the workplace is a worldwide trend. In the United States, for example, the current labour force is older, more gender balanced and contains more ethnic minorities than in past years. These workplace changes are projected to continue to the point where women will slightly outnumber men and where there will be equal numbers of white and non-white employees in the year 2050. The term "diversity" has been part of organizational and management literature for over twenty years. Indeed, the area is characterised by ambiguities, contradictions and uncertainties. This is why we are now more and more aware of its increasing importance in the private sector. In the context of this paper the effects of cultural diversity will be discussed along with the question, whether multiculturalism in international companies is the basis for better opportunities in competition to meet the challenges on a global scale. Another question that shall be answered is, to what extent cultural diversity management can lead to competitive economic advantages. For this purpose, the fundamental terms are interpreted first in the second chapter. The following chapter will address opportunities, risks and success factors, considering multiculturalism in international companies. In the last chapter, the stages of team development are illustrated using the "Tuckman Group Development Model".
