I think everything is connected to each other when it comes to culture & diversity. Without the different diversities people in our world, we wouldn't learn in life. We must always:

1. Understand and appreciate the interdependence of humanity, cultures, and the natural environment.

2. Respect, listen and learn from each other's experiences that are different from our own.
3. Understanding that diversity includes not only ways of being but also ways of knowing.

Neil Patel is an inspiring entrepreneur. Forbes says he is one of the top 10 marketers, and Entrepreneur Magazine says he created one of the 100 most brilliant companies. He was recognized as a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 30 by President Obama. I found this article important and interesting because his blog speaks about elements that make a great company culture and facts that are to be considered for success.

* Important elements that make great company culture:

1. Hiring people who fit the culture which see how they work and how they get along and work with others.
2. Having employees know the values and the mission of the company which workers who know the value of the company and people around it. When employees are passionate about the values and mission they are dedicated to accomplishing the goal.

Are diverse companies really more innovative? Rocío Lorenzo and her team surveyed 171 companies to find out and the answer was a clear yes. I found this video interesting because she speaks facts that are true. She says things happen in reality.
Rocio Lorenzo says "Are companies really more innovative because they have more diverse leadership or the other way around? Which way is it?
Companies that are more diverse are more innovative, and that company that is more innovative have more diverse leadership. It works both ways diversity driving innovation & innovation driving diversity."
I found this important question and I think everything is connected to each other. ]]> 2019-04-26 01:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/larakaseer/Man2021/wish/354321778 Module 2 larakaseer https://padlet.com/larakaseer/Man2021/wish/354505066 What makes you special?
I found this video very interesting and inspiring because it talks about different people from other countries how they're living and the way they think. Mariana Atencio talks about her immigrant experience when she traveled the world from Haiti to Hong Kong. Mariana tells us how the people she's met along the way have taught her that the only thing we all have in common is being human and embracing what makes you different. She talks about how we should not judge each other and have feelings for others and try to put ourselves in other people's shoes. From what I understood in this video which is something very important is when you see something or someone different do not judge right away try to observe and learn because life is teaching you something.]]> 2019-04-26 15:57:22 UTC https://padlet.com/larakaseer/Man2021/wish/354505066 Module 3 larakaseer https://padlet.com/larakaseer/Man2021/wish/354521786 How To Take Your Company Global

I always think working as a group is easier than individual because that way you get different opinions, ideas, and have a different experience of knowledge.

Better Communication

Organizational culture refers to the behavior of the people who make up an organization; this includes their values, visions, norms, working language, systems, symbols, beliefs, and habits. Organizational culture affects the way people and groups interact with each other and with clients. I found this video important because it explains the key to a successful organization is to have a culture based on a strongly held and widely shared set of beliefs and goals that are supported by strategy, and structure.
* What is Organizational Culture?

Human nature
The organization's relationship to its environment.
Appropriate emotions.
Effectiveness.

In a centralized organization, only the top managers make decisions, whereas the lower-level managers are tasked with carrying out the directives. In a decentralized organization, the decision making is pushed down to the managers who are the closest to the work or client.
~Centralized organization advantages:

Clarity
Consolidation
Focus

~Disadvantages:

Lack of Initiative
Low morale
Lack of opportunity

~Decentralized organization advantages:

Engagement
Quality of information
Flexibility

~Disadvantages:

Blind spots
Unclear chain of command
Inefficiency

I found it important to learn about these structures because it will help in the future with business majors. I think the centralized organization the managers have so much responsibility and things to do while the decentralized organization is less.
