Diversity Workforce Memoir Sr James F S Seekie

The Fortune 500 corporations are challenged by the intercultural leadership deficit that extends to governmental and nonprofit organizations. The book presents the argument for intercultural competent Team leadership among organizations for managing diverse workforce for efficiency and productivity. The nonprofit sector, for example, has a leadership deficit gap over the next decades-just like the Fortune corporations are facing the shortage of managers required to provide the desired intercultural competent management in the global marketplace. Trading across the borders demands acculturated management dynamics than the world is accustomed, after transcendence from the industrial revolution. The business world and service organizations, including governmental ones, are challenged by intercultural values required locally and abroad to maintain a successful Team leadership in global organizational management. The solution involves global standard management operation by trained diversity Team leadership across the sectors to harmonize workplaces, as the world has changed to diversity world of inclusion. Industries rely on efficient management characterized by diverse cultures. The deficit gap has created a dent in profit and quality services. The effect can lead to discrimination and racism that can negatively affect the workforce environment as a cross-section of the workforce feels discriminated against, owing to conscious and unconscious bias treatment. Industries need to rethink the strategies for diversity inclusion by appropriate training of managers locally and globally for the delivery of the desired services. Team leadership deficits need attention among organizations in globalization. The current public outcry about the deaths of citizens and the recent Starbuck Coffee shop's unconscious treatment of a black man is the US, was a reawakening call for re-engagement of the dialogue about diversity inclusion as a challenge to public services, including governmental, non-governmental, and international organizations. The incidents show the deficit of diversity inclusion and affirmative action synergism and need education in the learning environment, including workplaces. The education of leaders about the diversity population is advocated in the book.
