Gary Vaynerchuk Impressed Me - Perry Belcher, Imagine

Ok, Maybe I’m a little cocky and I’m not impressed by most of the knucklehead gurus or wannabe gurus, probably because I have made 10X more money than the average guru online.

So what turns me on? Passion.

I have obviously learned by now that money, things, business and even some friends come and go. Only passion lives forever. This guy is the real article. Check it out and comment dammit. I ain’t givin’ you any more good crap if you dont start commenting. Love Ya, P

I Learning Diversity The Hard Way

Cultural diversity within your business is an opportunity and needs to be embraced as one. Just take a look around you. Opportunity abounds because our world is a diverse place. Whether you have come to realize it or not as a small business owner, your awareness and respect of cultural diversity in the workplace truly matters to your employees and your client base. If you want your business to be successful and competitive in the future, you will have to utilize these human resources and participate in these diversity trends. As we move further along in the 21st century, it will be necessary for business owners to compete in a more global arena. You’ll compete for resources, for people, and much more. Even though your business may be based in the United States it doesn’t mean your customers will be or that your suppliers are. We are in an age that includes the world wide web. And with the internet the boundaries to doing business in other countries have been overcome. The rest of the world is not just for the big boys anymore. But can you take advantage of that? Do you know what kinds of products will sell in India, China, Finland, Germany and elsewhere? Do you know what kind of goods can be purchased for your business? That is where being a culturally diverse company is an advantage. Your employees may know how to do business in places that you don’t.

Successfully managing cultural diversity in the workplace is a challenge, but one that can be overcome and taken advantage of. The people you hire will always have diverse cultural backgrounds. And that culture is not just based on the color of their skin. They come from different countries, states, regions, and neighborhoods. They can tell you things about places you’ve probably never been and are not likely to visit anytime soon. They’ll be of different genders and social backgrounds. And they’ll things know of things that can impact your business either now or in the future.

Cultural diversity in the workplace can help improve the company’s competitive position in the marketplace. Marketing programs nowadays are constantly geared toward individual ethnic groups. Take as an example the changes that big box stores like Sears and Walmart are making. Once upon a time they believed that what sold well in places like Green Bay, Wisconsin and Seattle, Washington would sell just as well in San Antonio, Texas, and San Diego, California. They didn’t care about who the actual consumers in those areas were.

Everybody buys the same things right? So all of their locations would be shipped the same things. Well they’ve since woken up to the truth. Different cultures demand different products! Now many of the largest chains in the world have given their stores the ability and resources to buy locally.

The management of cultural diversity in the workplace can be considered a response to the need to recognize, respect and capitalize on the different backgrounds in our society in terms of race, ethnicity, and gender. Whether you’ve noticed or not every single day you are exposed to different forms of cultural diversity. From what you watch, where you eat, and the places you visit.

Your small business is a team and just like any team it should be built to take advantage of its strengths and to minimize its weaknesses. Differences among members of a team can work to strengthen the bonds that they form with clients throughout the world. Ethnic diversity in the workplace enables businesses to serve a broader base of clients with ease. Workers can better relate with clients because more often than not your clients are likely to be just as diverse as you. In diversity you’ll find that you share a lot of common ground with your clients. In diversity you’ll find strength!

Businesses that have incorporated diverse training into their strategies have found that the benefits of incorporating diverse talent into the workforce not only improves productivity, but also creates a well balanced pool of knowledge, experience and creativity. Promoting diversity within the workplace can produce lasting results. Results that will reverberate within your business for many years to come.

Promoting cultural and ethnic diversity in the workplace should begin before you hire even your first employee. You need to realize the strength that can be added to your organization by embracing it!
