Conference Proposal Supervision Type of Program: Roundtable Multicultural Approach to Contemporary Supervision Program Description With the continuing spread and domination of globalization in contemporary business, it is crucial for managerial practices to be able to keep up in an increasingly multicultural environment. The modern business environment presents issues in dealing with the extreme diversity within its working population. Understanding the need for sensitivity to this growing diversity is now a crucial element for successful supervision.

As such, the goals for this program are to introduce supervisors to this growing diversity in a practical manner in order to provide tools for them to utilize in their own unique working environments. A presentation of unique environmental and cultural factors to supervisors will strengthen their ability to cope with the diverse factors they encounter in their managerial roles. This will then strengthen the quality of leadership and efficiency to meet organizational goals.

In order to achieve such goals, the delivery of the program will center on a semi-structured roundtable presentation. The topic will be introduced and then expanded based on a thorough presentation of the literature in the current discourse regarding the nature of the need for cultural sensitivity within supervisor roles and relations. This will help facilitate a discussion between participants, where the leader guides each individual to finding their own unique way of implementing a more multicultural approach to their own supervisory position in their organizations.

Overall, this program is in synergy with the underlying theme of this year's conference. It aims to unite a multicultural working environment while still highlighting the unique differences that allow the contemporary workforce to bring a myriad of perspectives to the common work environment. Learning Objectives Participants will learn the value of diversity in the workplace. They will gain tools that will help them approach their leadership with respect to cultural differences.

The program will introduce supervisors to benefits of working in an environment and how to harness these positives without becoming a fragmented workforce. Essentially, the main objective is to teach supervisors how to be sensitive to diversity while still allowing it to thrive within their workplace environments to promote more diverse thinking and innovation.
