Small World
Article Abstract:
The increasing globalization trend has created broader opportunities for people as companies and industries are increasingly hiring people who understand other cultures, legal systems, and ways of doing business. Companies which were once blindsided by cross-cultural differences are now open minded about hiring people who could build trust, communicate effectively, exhibit leadership, function successfully in teams, and manage others amid a swirl of different, cultural dynamics.

Getting results
Article Abstract:
Research in 2003, by Thomas Kochan at Massachusets Institute of Technology showed that having diverse teams on board could improve a company's performance and boost innovation if diversity is managed effectively. More and more companies are increasingly testing strategies for measuring whether their diversity programs are helping employees work together more effectively and even contributing to the bottom line, and fixing them if they are not.
