As seen on Fig. 1b two thirds of respondents, who represented people from all levels of management as well as
common employees, reported that they view their current workplace and organisation as multicultural or
intercultural (note that the author of the survey understands “multicultural” as comprising more than two cultures
whereas “intercultural” as purely two component feature). Together with another question where almost 90 % of
those surveyed stated they have previously had personal experience working in intercultural/multicultural
environment, it is evident that people feel as an integral part of international business structures where blending of
different cultures is an inevitable consequence. In addition, as a proof of increasing multicultural awareness, more
than two thirds of respondents perceive culture diversity in their workplace or organisation as very important or
important, as can be seen on Fig. 1a.
