Improved Team Engagement
A proven way to learn about other cultures and ethnicities
from colleagues is to hold an internal networking event,
asking fellow Assistants and co-workers to join in during a lunch
break or after work. Ask Human Resources or Head of Diversity to
speak on key results expected by having a pool of diverse employees
and how each other’s lifestyle and culture sets the course and
direction for the organization.
When the team members share personal experiences about when
they were in high school or what different holidays or seasons mean
to them, they build a trusting relationship among their colleagues.
Team building through understanding each other’s diversity is a
great way to build morale.
