An Analysis of a Unity of Cultural Perspectives to Achieve Global Business Success

Abstract

This chapter presents an analysis of global business using a pluralistic, inclusive, and complementary approach. There needs to be greater flexibility, understanding, and empathy among global partners of the needs within global organizations of addressing cultural diversity and inclusivity in the decisions and actions that are taken. The aspects affecting human nature are an intrinsic part of the performance of an employee; therefore human nature, language, and the cultural dimensions of employees in a global business environment are analyzed. Alternative approaches of viewing cultural diversity from a management perspective are discussed. A critical analysis of a Unity of Perspectives is undertaken to show how, although employees come from diverse backgrounds and cultural experiences, a participative management approach contributes significantly to the feeling and morale of staff and increases their performance and levels of productivity. Change management is inevitable in organizations. A crucial aspect to my discussion on cultural diversity is the question: How do managers, manage change? Emotional intelligence, insights, and respect regarding interpersonal relations and corporate encounters with employees from diverse cultural groups are, in my opinion, crucial for successful business growth, development, and sustainability. Dialogue is an important tool on the road to mutual understanding between individuals from different cultural backgrounds in a global business environment. The pivotal role dialogue plays in the transformation and cooperation between employees is discussed within the context of the global business environment. The role the global business environment plays in providing a sense of direction and hope for humanity by adopting an inclusive, pluralistic, diverse, culturally empowering stance is emphasized.
