Introduction

Globalization has taken place in many organizations affecting the culture of different

people. It is unusual for a company to have employees, suppliers, and customers who are born

and raised in the same country of operation. Having such working environments' culture affects

the perception of team members. As a team leader or employee, specific strategies are used to

help incorporate with members from different cultural backgrounds through the working

environment.

Effects of culture on team perception

Businesses have gone global, working with people from different cultural backgrounds.

Employees find themselves working in other countries, having meetings via Skype with different

people, cultures playing different roles in all those work areas. In such cases, culture impacts

how people give responses and how decisions are made. Also, the behaviors' in a workplace are

affected by culture, including values that inform how a supervisor treats others or how

employees see each other (Vandaveer et al., 2012). For example, an employee born and raised in

Mexico but working in the United States and another employee born in the U.S and working

there may have different ways of perceiving information from each other due to how the data is

passed through.

In any organization, the hierarchy of power can be misused. In some cultures, equality in

the workplace is a norm, while in other cultures, it is more hierarchical. For example, an

employee who comes from a culture that focuses on equality might find themselves sharing their

thoughts about their work with their leaders, while an employee who comes from a culture that

focuses on authority speaking to their supervisors about their opinion might seem disrespectful
