公司的多元化培训（1）

Today we all live in an increasingly culturally diverse world. Each year thousands, if not millions, of people leave their homes to work abroad and almost every company no matter where you live, will employ people from other countries or cultures.

如今我们生活在一个文化上日趋多元化的世界里。每年都会有成千上万甚至几百万的人离开家乡到异国工作。不论你住在哪里，几乎每个公司都会有来自不同国家或不同文化背景的员工。

不幸的是，并非每个人都很了解怎样与外国人交流。在一个公司里，不同的文化之间得不到很好的交流会导致公司的生产率下降，而且会对公司的士气产生负面影响。
