Learn history lessons
The leadership at your organization into a multicultural workplace requires an understanding of the historical contributions of communities of color.
Think WE, not I
Today's corporate world is an competitive place that seems to be selfish. To maintain these elements, people behave politely, act in a socially desirable manner, and respect other.
Practice generosity, not greed
In communities of color, being generous is an expected leadership trait that indicates integrity and garners respect. How does this generosity show itself in the working world? People need to view work as an opportunity to share their talents and contribute to the welfare of the organization.
Flatten your leadership structure.
Traditional leadership today is associated with fat salaries and mega bonuses, the big office, special parking places, etc. Flattening the leadership structure will put you a step ahead of your competitors because employees will feel more comfortable and will work more easily together.
