Organizations are expanding around the world, which leads to increased sensitivity towards cultural differences. In order to gain success in the global marketplace, companies need to be culturally tolerant. Corporate analysts argue that the key to global business success depends on effective cross-cultural etiquette and global workforce diversity management [1].
