Effective Management in Multicultural Organizations

---

Though much ink has been spilled in academia on the importance of multiculturalism, cultural clashes in business and the workplace continue to be an issue of growing concern as the world moves toward an interlinked, global economy. Now more than ever, learning to draw on the richness of a kaleidoscopic workforce and to help all team members bring out their best efforts, is an astute managerial decision. This article will therefore, first, give a synopsis of the background of the problem; second, suggest a review of related literature; and finally, propose a conceptual framework for effective multicultural management. The challenge for organization is to increase the potential benefits of cultural diversity by creating a willingness-ta-share attitude-sharing success, sharing mental models, sharing a vision, and sharing competence-among workers so they will learn and their organization can learn. A real commitment to a sharing principle and learning is essential to effective management in multicultural organizations.
