Objective: To provide you with an opportunity to show you have the required knowledge for this unit.
The answers to the following questions will enable you to demonstrate your knowledge of:
While working with a culturally diverse group, I should be aware of their language proficiency as it is the most important aspect of effective working in a diverse organization. If the person is not able to talk in a language in which I am communicating, it will become difficult for me to understand the need of the group or I will not be able to make them aware of my position. Therefore, language proficiency is the first thing I would like to be aware of while working in a diverse group.
As a practice nurse, I might face several culturally diverse patients. Those patients may be culturally orthodox and do not allow me to implement modern interventions for their betterment. Further, their language can be a barrier for me to understand the need of the patient and my gesture can be offensive to them. Further, their food and nutritional habit can be limiting as well.
My attitude can affect the diverse group of people both negatively and positively. My positive body language while working with a diverse group effects the environment positively. Effective communication skills and listening capacity will enhance the communication and its effect. However, poor communication skills and negative attitude will hamper the organizational work culture.
Culturally diverse group has people of different culture and ethnicity working together. Therefore, their behaviour, their language proficiency, their religious beliefs and festivals are different. This difference can affect the workplace negatively as well positively. The workers may demand leaves or incentives on their cultural festivals that can affect the potential of the However, if the organization manages the situation with effective strategies and policies, the cultural competency will be managed.
The first law that can help diverse people in the case of discrimination, in work or other platforms is the Human Rights act. This act protects the right of every individual irrespective of his or her caste, creed, origin, and ethnicity and helps them to stand against social, cultural and mental discrimination. Further, the Australian discrimination law, workplace health and safety, ethical code of conduct are the laws that involves the legal parameters to decide the level of discrimination and after that helps the diverse people to stand against discrimination.
Gender is one of the abovementioned aspect, people are being judged for globally. From the primitive age, female gender is fighting for its rights, and basic needs. Further, they are being discriminated based on their gender and people generally assume that they are not being able to fight for their right. This is the reason for the increased crimes against them. Therefore, the gender discrimination is a major issue in today’s work culture and in a diverse social and work environment, it is highlighted effectively.
Economic issue: income and education is the main issues that helps to engage the society and influence others. The aboriginals and Torres Strait islander people are lowest in the Australian economy and they have poor socio-economic status, education level, employment level. Therefore, the debt, poverty and homelessness, social isolation and crime.
Socio-political issue: the social factor that affect these people are discrimination by state and its people. Such people used to study two type of history, one taught by their families and other, a humiliating history taught by the state. Due to such social discrimination, they are not been given any powerful position in the government and this shows the political discrimination. These factors shows the racial, political and social discriminations that affect the lives of Torres-strait islanders and aboriginals life in every aspect.
In a diverse group, one of the main goal is to think positively and towards a common goal. However, it might happen that some of the group member do not think commonly abut a topic and behaves adversely. This hampers several aspects of that culturally or socially diverse group.
The first resource that will be important while working in a culturally diverse group is an interpreter, who can understand entire language spoken in the organization and can translate that in English.
Further access to internet would be required as graphical, pictorial and videos can help to communicate the messages that cannot be spoken.
Finally, using verbal as well as non-verbal communication skills to address the situation is mandatory in multi-diverse team.
People’s attitude in a diverse group can be hampered if one of the group member uses poor communication skills and negative attitude while talking to other group members. Despite knowing the fact that all the group, members are not able to speak in English, if someone do not speak slowly and use clear language, then in can change the attitude of people in the group.
Diverse practices are useful in developing interpersonal relationships. One such example can be my example while working with a culturally diverse group. I was working with this group in my semester assignment, our duty was to find out the reason of extended hospital stays, and we were four practice nurses working on the assignment. Other than me, there was an aboriginal student, one Indian student and one Chinese student. The first cultural barrier I faced was language and working culture. Further, there were instances when usage of body language and gestures in between conversation, irritates some of the members. However, positive attitude and good communication skills helped me to resume the conversation and further improved the interpersonal relationship.
