a final thought.
“A strong culture hinges on championing the different
backgrounds and beliefs of your employees to build a
better workplace. A culturally competent employer
ensures that everyone has a voice, an advocate and is
actively included in the overall success of the
company. Ultimately, how people are treated,
welcomed and developed translates into either a
fortified or weak organization.”
