Cross Cultural Communication is Essential in
a Diverse Workplace
The global market place has become
smaller due to the emergence of technology and
inclusion of cultures from across the world. The
environment at workplace is evolving due to the
expansions happening across different geographic
locations. This globalization of cultures, religion
and difference of beliefs, have made business
environments become far more diverse in nature.
Therefore, there are complications arising from
conflicting opinions, ideas and beliefs. It is
important to understand others’ cultures and their
responses in order to avoid negative outcomes.

Good Cross Cultural Communication Leads to
Cultural Awareness
It becomes easier to work in such an
environment when an organization has the correct
leadership to make people aware about the cultural
differences and at the same time develop mutual
respect towards each other. A global leader always
inspires others to emerge as better persons who are
able to show respect and great communication
skills towards peers and associates. It is important
to be culturally aware in order to work in such an
environment (Mead, 2017). This helps in
understanding cultural backgrounds of the people
one is associated with, and their styles of
communication. The strength of an organization
gets enhanced when perspectives are built which
help them become more open and receptive
towards changes and differences.

Restatement of Thesis Cross cultural communication needs to be

organization to deal with differences and
disputes that may arise over the matter of
culture, at the workplace.
Summary of Main Points
I wish to emphasize first and foremost that
supervisors at a workplace need to be
particularly aware of the importance of
cultural diversity and need to make efforts to
implement cultural diversity in their approach
to the running of the organization. I believe
that one of the key ways by which this can be
achieved is to recruit or hire people from all
types of economic, social, religious and cultural
backgrounds and also make it a point to hire
people from belong to more than one type of
gender, thus addressing the matter of gender
sensitivity at the same given time (Chung,
2019).
Engaging in the practice of diversity is
something that is going to lead to awareness at

the workplace about the various types of
cultures and creeds that are out there and why
and how each and every culture must be given
its due respect,(Cutler, 2018).
Why cultural diversity is a matter that
needs to be addressed at the workplace is the
fact that conflicts can often arise among and
between workers over the matter of culture.
People can run into disagreements with one
another over differences in terms of cultural
values.
They may not be on the same page on similar
things because their individual cultures do not
allow it, leading to a lot of problems especially
in the area of communication, at work.
Disagreements between and among co-workers
surrounding the matter of work is something
that must be avoided in an organization at all
costs.
There are a number of reasons for this. To
begin with, you must know that the foremost
goal of any business organization is
productivity (Folsom-Kovarik et al., 2018).
Nothing at all should come in the way of
meeting organizational goals and objectives as
not doing so is harmful for the growth and
development of the organization.
If disagreements on matters of cultural
diversity are allowed to take place, this is going
to lead to a lot of stress and strain among
workers and they are going to lack the frame of
mind that they need in order to do their work
well. As a consequence, productivity is
something that is definitely going to be
hampered and this is something that any
business organization, whether large or small,
can ill afford. Hence managers and supervisors
of a workplace need to take it upon themselves
to engage in good cross cultural
communication as in doing so, they can prevent
cross cultural disputes and disagreements from
taking place, thus keeping the workplace
environment free from negativity, stress and
strain (Gillham et al., 2018).
Closing Comments I will conclude my presentation now with the
argument that cultural diversity is something
