Cultural Immersion Proposal
The society we live in is composed of people from different cultures and with different values and systems. Cultural immersion is considered as the act of surrounding oneself with the culture of a different group. Culture is the totality of socially transmitted behavior patterns, beliefs, arts, institutions and thought characteristics of a population or community (Hamdan, 2017). It is a set of shared beliefs, values, attitudes, and behavioral patterns of an organization or a group (Hammoud, White, & Fetters, 2005). In this project, I have chosen to focus on Islamic culture by visiting and interacting with them in the mosques located in my community, New York City. Like many other religions, Islam claims to be universally accommodating within its cultural folds. Islam is one of the religions that have a broad parameter of rules and regulations and one with unique culture and traditions.
There has always been is a difference in opinion on whether Islam has its own distinct culture. But the social norms that are derived from Muslims are often reflected in the everyday lives of its followers and the society. New York City is one of the regions that have a very high population of Muslims in the US. The Muslim community has come under a lot of criticisms from non-Muslims particularly as a result of their connection with terrorism and terrorist groups, mostly in the wake of President Trump’s administration where many of them have been disenfranchised. Most non-Muslims however do not know much about their culture. In this project I will visit Muslim gatherings in New York City to interact with them and observe their culture, beliefs, and behavioral patterns. I will contact a leader or any member of the Muslim community in the gatherings for an interview on how to effectively interact with the group or get a cultural guide to help access the group in a better way. I will engage with the individuals within the gathering setting in five different occasions.
During the interview with the leader or member of the group, I will put focus on the culture of the Muslim community including some of their renowned beliefs, values, attitudes, and behaviors. Everyone knows that Muslims is one of the most strict religions across the globe. Well, I would wish to determine whether that is true and learn more about them. During my interaction with the Muslims in their gathering places like Mosques, I will outline my reactions to my experience with them particularly on how they conduct themselves and their cultural activities, why they gather together, and what the gatherings means to them.

For the last half-century, the workforce in the United States has been undergoing tremendous demographic changes. For example, in 2009 women accounted for almost 48% of American workforce, compared to 37% in 1970 (Barsh & Yee, 2011). Additionally, workers under the age of 44, and those most likely to be in school, college, or professional training, are more ethnically and racially diverse than ever before (Policy Alert, 2005). This is only diversity of gender, race, and ethnicity; consider how managers today must also lead increasingly diverse teams in terms of age, experience, nationality, geographic location, and even diversity of thinking styles. Contemporary businesses draw employees from a more diverse pool of talent than ever before. To be successful, top managers must understand how to develop and lead diverse teams.
Managing a group composed of individuals with unique cultures, backgrounds, personalities, and abilities can be a daunting task. As a manager, it is your responsibility to ensure that team and group interactions are successful. As you review the Learning Resources this week to prepare for your Discussion posting, think about how you define diversity and diversity affects teams. Pay particular attention to the media resource, “Will Differences Doom the Team,” which presents some of the challenges managers face when leading a diverse team, and consider the key competencies managers must possess to effectively manage a diverse team. As you prepare for your post, consider what diversity means for you and how the diversity you have encountered in your professional experience have impacted how the team functions.
With these thoughts in mind:

Post your response that includes the following:
· Explain the types of diversity you have encountered in your professional experience and the challenges that each type of diversity posed to a team’s performance. Include in your explanation how a manager can leverage a team’s diversity to improve its performance.

Cross Cultural Intelligence
Culture is one of the greatest pillars that impact on interpersonal relations between individuals from different geographical locations. It is described as individuals’ values and beliefs hold towards other groups of people, and it impacts on individuals’ outward behaviors and attitudes towards others of different cultural orientation. Peoples’ inner beliefs and values influence how we act either in desirable or undesirable patterns. The level of culturally-induced behavior is influenced by an individual’s level of cultural intelligence. Gaining knowledge on other cultures increases our facts about different people and their places, traditions, fashions, political, and economic systems among other cultural diversity aspects. Cultural intelligence helps individuals to interact effectively and work well across different geographical locations with minimal or no cultural offenses to others.
To determine my level of cultural intelligence, I took a quiz from cross-cultural work scenarios and the country quiz from the United Kingdom (UK). The two quizzes have relatively tested the level of awareness to other countries cultural aspects. In the case of cultural work scenarios, my cultural awareness on countries like Turkey, Argentina, and Thailand. On these scenarios, I had a wrong choice. On the other quizzed on the U.K, the score was relatively good with exceptions of the meaning of celebratory gathering proposes a toast, the mostly spoken non-native language, and at what position of the clock should the knife and fork be placed when a dinner guest has finished their meal?
From the quizzes, I was surprised that Turkey is cosmopolitan, and they are used to Western Women. I believed that women in rural Turkey are not allowed to leave their houses. Besides, I got know that it is important to learn about other country’s culture and natives to have experience with you. Nick was offered a two days delay for his market presentation so that the Argentinean supervisors can have experience with him before the presentation. Further, I was amused that I don’t know non-native languages in the U.K, meaning of their flag, and table etiquette.
My strengths in cultural awareness are that I can identify some cultural behaviors that are offensive to a country’s natives. For instance, I was able to identify that asking personal questions in France and folding shirt sleeves in Japan is offensive. Besides, I’m culturally aware of celebrations and currency in the U.K. On the other hand, my weakness was that I cannot identify table etiquette in the U.K, conduct behavior in Thailand, and women cultural requirements in Turkey. I had a belief that women in ...

8.4 Building Cultural Intelligence
LEARNING OBJECTIVE
Discuss how to adapt to different cultures.
Managing cultural differences in the workplace is key to a company's survival, but it is also key to an
individual's ability to contribute to society. To operate effectively in a global world requires the use of cultural
intelligence, or the knowledge to function effectively across cultural contexts. Cultural intelligence is measured
by a person's cultural intelligence quotient (CQ). A person with high CQ can differentiate features of a
behavior that relate to culture, features that are universal, and features that are specific to an individual. For
example, if you attended a meeting in Finland and your Finnish colleague didn't do a lot of talking but then
summarized what you said, would that be a common cultural communication pattern found among Finns or is it
unique to that individual? If it is not unique to the individual but is a behavior common in Finnish culture, then
it can give you a clue about how you might want to structure your own conversations with other Finnish
colleagues.
Take, for example, a U.S. manager who was serving on a design team that included two German engineers. As
other team members offered ideas, the two Germans shot the ideas down—even describing them as not
applicable or too immature. After a fair amount of interaction with these engineers, the U.S. manager concluded
that Germans, in general, were rude and aggressive people. Had she possessed a higher level of cultural
intelligence, however, the U.S. manager might have realized that she was conflating the merit of ideas and the
merit of the people offering them—two factors the Germans were able to make a sharp distinction between.
Many managers would probably empathize with the team members whose ideas were being criticized and
propose a new style of discussion for the team that would protect people's feelings while allowing for candor.
However, without being able to distinguish how much of the engineers' behavior was culturally determined and
how much was unique to them as individuals, the manager couldn't know how to influence their actions or how
easy or difficult it might be to do so.
Assessing Cultural Intelligence
Cultural intelligence is rooted in research across many different countries and profoundly affects the way
businesses work and the success of cross-border leadership. Three factors determine a person's level of CQ.
It's not enough to be good at just one or two—all three are necessary to effectively and appropriately adjust
behaviors in a foreign culture. These three factors, which we discuss next, are cognitive CQ, behavioral CQ,
and motivational CQ.

Power and Influence
Carlissa
Daft defines influence as the effect a person’s actions have on the attitude, values, beliefs or actions of others (p.369).
There is an expression that says first impressions last a lifetime. When you meet someone for the very first time your actions, behavior, body language, and posture will automatically “influence” them. Even the way you speak and your tone of voice can influence a person’s perception of you. This will give them a negative or positive impression of you.
In the video Amy Cuddy talked about power and power poses that can help people on an individual basis. She mentioned how these power poses can help one feel empowered and if you feel empowered this can help you get that job or promotion. This will help the way you act and the way you perceive things. Other traits that go along with power are confidence, aggressiveness, courage, charisma, knowledge, and dominance.
Sometimes, well a lot of times people are intimidated by power.
I thought it was interesting when she mentioned how the feeling of power can affect our hormones, high testosterone and low cortisol.
One thing that stood out for me in this video is “making yourself small”. I am always conscience of my posture but I never really thought about the everyday little things that I may do that may make myself seem small so I have to keep an eye out. I can’t say I have a sparkling personality and perform gestures that may make me seem small (
I enjoyed Amy’s presentation. Wonder Woman took me way back. Come to think of it most of the superheroes pose that way.

Power can influence others significantly whether it is through body language, as discussed in the video or verbal communication. Power determines aspects within an organization like who gets promoted and who does not get promoted. Power can influence people to do what they want, when they want establishing a sort of dependency. If someone looks at a leader within an organization as having power, people within the organization are more likely to develop a dependency on this person whether it be for information, resources, cooperation and more. As a leader to establish a sense of power within an organization could also help to encourage employees to perform work at the best of their ability. If you know the leader of an organization can supply you with what you need to get the job done, as am employee, you should work to use that to your advantage. In the video, Cuddy explains the significance of body language and how you present your body language as a leader. If you cross your arms, hunch your shoulders, or have close-closed contact with your body, that will affect how employees look at you and the power that you have over them. As a leader, if you are always crossing your arms and not presenting your body language in an assertive manner with closed postures, employees may not take you as serious and cause them to not take the job as serious, affecting .

How to live without the academic hunger games. Narelle Lemon
I’m not going to play the academic research collaboration hunger games: hunting, attacking, stealing, and back stabbing are not a part of my agenda!
The university is a game. It has rules, transparent and hidden, but it is a place essentially driven by competitiveness, much akin to the notion of hunger games. I refer to the competitiveness and reference to the hunger games metaphor where we are placed against each other – institutionally, within our own department or faculty, and indeed within some collaborations, and against one another. We are at times placed in positions where as higher degree research students and academics we are uncomfortable, isolated, experience personal and knowledge based attacks, stress, anxiety, and we are challenged as individuals from a perspective of self-care. How can we navigate the academic research collaboration hunger games?
Throughout this presentation I invite a rethinking of the narrative of competition to one of mindful choice as academics working in research collaborations within the current contemporary higher education context. A disruption to this is a repositioning of being, a mindful approach to who and how we collaborate. I invite an enactment of a self-awareness to our own approach to research collaboration, and consideration underpinned on how this impacts others' by engaging in rewarding interpersonal relationships. I connect with the higher degree research experience, being an academic collaborator, working with industry, co publishing, and utilising social media as examples of shifting practice.
I’m an advocate of being the change you want to see. If we mindfully approach our collaborations – including the collaborative process (relationship formation, development, and growth) and the outputs – then there is a space to disrupt the competitive nature, at least within our self, amongst each other, and hopefully within the institution. Mindful choice is key to this.

Student One LW:
Hi Class,
I really enjoyed this class it has given me the opportunity to see the different types of management styles that are out there. Along with being a strong leader one must also have a great team in place. A great leader can not do all the work to be successful. Showing respect, compassion, and letting employees share there ideas is just a few of the ways Indra Nooyi leads her employees. It was interesting to see how she brought her vision for PepsiCo to life even when everyone thought she was crazy that a soft drink company should have healthier snacks and beverages. Believing that companies should give back to the communities, the planet, and underdeveloped countries are just a few reasons that I believe she is a great leader. Nooyi's beliefs that you should always continue to learn even when your at the top is another reason she is a great leader, she doesn't believe she knows everything already. I am really glad I choose her as a leader to report about, she is an inspiration to us all.
For me I have found out after taking the Clifton Survey that my five top themes are that I am a relator, responsibility, achiever, futuristic, and input. I believe these treats are true to me, I feel that I want to mentor people to be the best for people. This class has given me a road map on the way I want to lead once I am in that position. I see that a lot of traits Nooyi has, I also have. I know I wont be a great as she is, but I know that I will have the background to get me close.
Good luck to everyone I really enjoyed reading about all of the leaders.

Student Two AO:
I have gained an incredible amount of knowledge this term and thoroughly enjoyed this journey! Based on my research I do believe I possess some positive leadership characteristics and abilities. Actually the more I learned and the more we progressed, the more I saw my professional role in a new light. Knowing now that leaders need to create passion and compassion, knowing I should show gratitude and express it to the team or individuals, or even knowing that the actual layout of an office can have an effect on productivity and company morale, really empowered me to act! I have been able to observe and analyze what my leaders are doing and how I should or shouldn't follow their example.
Indra Nooyi was a kind, thoughtful, driven, confident, humble, and knowledgable leader who gained those abilities throughout her life. In the final paragraphs of my final milestone, I discuss how I strongly feel our lives influence our leadership abilities as much as our embedded genetics.

Throughout this presentation I invite a rethinking of the narrative of competition to one of mindful choice as academics working in research collaborations within the current contemporary higher education context. A disruption to this is a repositioning of being, a mindful approach to who and how we collaborate. I invite an enactment of a self-awareness to our own approach to research collaboration, and consideration underpinned on how this impacts others' by engaging in rewarding interpersonal relationships. I connect with the higher degree research experience, being an academic collaborator, working with industry, co publishing, and utilising social media as examples of shifting practice.
I’m an advocate of being the change you want to see. If we mindfully approach our collaborations – including the collaborative process (relationship formation, development, and growth) and the outputs – then there is a space to disrupt the competitive nature, at least within our self, amongst each other, and hopefully within the institution. Mindful choice is key to this.

Hi Class,
I really enjoyed this class it has given me the opportunity to see the different types of management styles that are out there. Along with being a strong leader one must also have a great team in place. A great leader can not do all the work to be successful. Showing respect, compassion, and letting employees share there ideas is just a few of the ways Indra Nooyi leads her employees. It was interesting to see how she brought her vision for PepsiCo to life even when everyone thought she was crazy that a soft drink company should have healthier snacks and beverages. Believing that companies should give back to the communities, the planet, and underdeveloped countries are just a few reasons that I believe she is a great leader. Nooyi's beliefs that you should always continue to learn even when your at the top is another reason she is a great leader, she doesn't believe she knows everything already. I am really glad I choose her as a leader to report about, she is an inspiration to us all.
For me I have found out after taking the Clifton Survey that my five top themes are that I am a relator, responsibility, achiever, futuristic, and input. I believe these treats are true to me, I feel that I want to mentor people to be the best for people. This class has given me a road map on the way I want to lead once I am in that position. I see that a lot of traits Nooyi has, I also have. I know I wont be a great as she is, but I know that I will have the background to get me close.
Good luck to everyone I really enjoyed reading about all of the leaders.

I have gained an incredible amount of knowledge this term and thoroughly enjoyed this journey! Based on my research I do believe I possess some positive leadership characteristics and abilities. Actually the more I learned and the more we progressed, the more I saw my professional role in a new light. Knowing now that leaders need to create passion and compassion, knowing I should show gratitude and express it to the team or individuals, or even knowing that the actual layout of an office can have an effect on productivity and company morale, really empowered me to act! I have been able to observe and analyze what my leaders are doing and how I should or shouldn't follow their example.
Indra Nooyi was a kind, thoughtful, driven, confident, humble, and knowledgable leader who gained those abilities throughout her life. In the final paragraphs of my final milestone, I discuss how I strongly feel our lives influence our leadership abilities as much as our embedded genetics. Individuals who have had the opportunity to play organized sports learne ...

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

1. Culturally Competent Leadership/Management
This paper will focus on describing how the background (culture, age, race, gender, etc.) of
the person you choose to interview influences his/her/their leadership style and approach.
Interview a person who is currently in a leadership or high-level management position in
the field. This person must be different from you in at two ways (e.g., gender, age, race,
religion, sexual orientation, gender identification, etc.).
Based on the interviewees’ responses, what inferences can be drawn from your interview
related to culturally competent leadership? Discuss the importance of why self-reflection
and EI needs to be infused with culturally competent leadership and management? Discuss
the importance of diversity in mentoring and leading others. Why is it so essential for
organizations and teams, and how can it be promoted
Interview with Social Worker
Caucasian
Male
a. How would you describe your leadership style?
I would describe my leadership as transformational leadership.
b. How would you describe your top values that guide your philosophy about leadership,
and how does that manifest in your style of leadership?
I value growth and development, so I am always trying to put my employees in a position to
better themselves.
c. How do you feel that your own personal background and experiences have influenced
how you (1) developed your leadership style? (2) ways that you mentor or coach others?
(3) ways that you contribute to the organizational culture and workplace climate?
I grew up in a very dictatorship type household, so I knew I never wanted to be that type of
person in my career or personal life. I try to be open-minded and always considerate of my
employees needs
d. How would you describe your organizational culture? How does that differ or align with
your own cultural experiences and background? I think our organizational culture is good.
We attempt to be as inclusive and as diverse as possible. I grew up in a place that was not
diverse, so initially coming into the field some things were a cultural shock for me, but I
learned to embrace differences and welcome all cultures.
e. How do you approach motivating staff members? How might your background and
culture influence that?
2. I think motivating my employees depends on each employee independently, no 2 people
are motivated by the same things. I don't think my background and culture influences that
because it's not about me, it's about the employee.
f. How diverse is the workforce that you lead? What are your thoughts on that?
Our workforce is truly diverse in age, gender, race, you name it we have it. I love that about
our workplace because it brings so much insight.
g. How does your organization, and you as a leader, strive to promote inclusion within the
organization?
I think we promote inclusion in our recruitment, in our Diversity, Equity, and inclusion
policies
h. Have you experienced times when it was difficult talking about the differences that
existed between you and those you lead? Can you talk about that experience?
Yeah, when I first started in the field of social work, it was difficult for me because I came
from such a limited background, so it was a challenge for me to recognize the needs of my
employees.
I. What is your greatest leadership challenge?
I think my greatest challenge is evolving as quickly as the world evolves, everyday there is
something new, and sometimes I can be stuck in my way.
