Description
Review the case study, The Emirates Group and Employee Diversity, from your reading in this Unit.
• Answer the four questions provided in this case study.
• Make sure to integrate concepts from you learning this Unit.
Questions:
1. Is it sustainable to think that Emiratis, which make up only about 15 percent of the people in Dubai, can be leading the city as they have been for so long?
2. Integrating 160 different nationalities into one corporation, such as The Emirates Group, has challenges and opportunities. What challenges do you see? What opportunities come from this diverse workforce?
3. If you lived in a city with such diversity of people as Dubai, would you assimilate yourself with the people who are like you, or would you try to integrate into the overall community of all people?
4. Compared with 10 years ago, expatriate employees stay twice as long in Dubai, about five years, before they return to their home country or another foreign location. Do you think more expatriates will stay longer in Dubai as the city continues to develop into a world-class location?
