Abstract
One practical application of technology to promote diversity leadership can be found in the Culture Bump Approach to cross-cultural communication. This approach to dealing with differences offers the opportunity for leaders to understand the process of connecting beyond differences in a sustainable way. When this is combined with the advantages of delivering training via technology, a new possibility for diversity emerges. In this chapter, the authors examine the culture bump approach to dealing with differences, the impact of diversity leadership being framed within the culture bump approach, and technology’s contribution to both.
