Book
The multicultural mind : unleashing the hidden force for innovation in your organization / David C. Thomas.
David Thomas cites extensive research and examples showing that multiculturals - people who have deep experience in more than one culture - have developed skills and abilities that organizations can leverage in the service of innovation. They have a broader worldview. Having to integrate different cultural values has forced them to develop more complex ways of thinking and makes them better able to see new patterns and connections. Their heightened empathy, the result of learning to adapt to sometimes wildly different locations, customs, and beliefs, helps them build support for their ideas and work effectively on the teams that implement those ideas. This book makes a powerful business case for recognizing and cultivating a new dimension of diversity.
