Abstract

In an era of globalization and increased diversity, there is a wide agreement on the need to actively deal with diversity in educational organizations. In this scenario, the challenge of global competition for UAE schools requires principals to lead differently and deal more effectively with teachers from diverse cultural backgrounds and fulfil their diverse needs. There is strong empirical evidence for the positive link between effective diversity management and overall organizational effectiveness. This chapter sheds light on cultural intelligence (CQ) as a viable entrée from which leaders can manage diversity effectively and lead in multicultural settings successfully. This chapter also unlocks several key multidisciplinary trends between diversity management and organizational performance outcomes.
