CULTURAL AND SOCIAL DIVERSITY
"Culture is the collective programming of the human mind, obtained in the course of life, which is common to members of one group as opposed to another"
- Geert Hofstede
​
Learning to interpret other's behavior from their own perspective and understand how they might interpret our behavior differently because of their different perspectives is crucial when engaging with colleagues or customers from other backgrounds.
By embracing the Platinum rule and striving for cultural competency, individuals and organizations can foster a more inclusive and respectful environment where diversity is celebrated, perspectives are valued, and collaboration thrives across cultural boundaries.
