Abstract

In this competitive business world, competent employees in terms of knowledge, skill, experience, and abilities are highly required for enhancing creativity and innovation within the organization. The main purpose of this study was to examine how best practices for managing diversity, multicultural collaboration, and employee engagement are applied in organizations across a range of industries. As a research design, this study used a systematic review method. A comprehensive, unbiased search approach was applied in this paper. The descriptive and narrative data analysis methods were used in this study. Effective diversity management and multicultural collaboration have a significant role in the development of ethnic groups’ cultural values, enhancing organizational performance, minimizing misunderstandings, and maximizing the potential for strong cross-cultural relationships. This research was limited to a review of managing diversity and multicultural collaboration in the workplace. However, the study didn’t show what the existing problems look like in different companies and how organizations face different challenges and what is the effect of managing diversity and multicultural collaboration therefore future researchers can fill this gap by conducting scientific research and collecting the primary data from different case companies. The researcher understands that updated and relevant data are critical for the expansion of multicultural collaboration and diversity management. Because culture encourages entrepreneurial values, norms, and beliefs that support the capacity of the organization to detect, interpret, and translate signals from the environment into new behavior responses and can play an important role in creating an organizational climate that enables learning and innovative response to challenges, competitive threats, or new opportunities.
