C-Suite Network™

John Lopez, PhD

Book Description

Businesses operate in an increasingly diverse, global workforce, and in the coming years in the U.S., net international migration is expected to be among the largest factors influencing population growth. And in recent years, various research shows more diverse organizations perform noticeably better than less diverse organizations.

Research shows more diverse organizations perform noticeably better less diverse organizations. Dr. Lopez shares stories of an immigrant’s journey to the C-Suite, and addresses various topics including shifting demographics, American dynamics through an immigrant’s lens, and recent cultural transformations. He outlines 20 activities divided into four levels that organizations can implement to increase cultural competence and productivity between and among teams, and leaders can accomplish to prepare for or excel in C-Suite positions.
