Experience with Diversity

I had a good experience in working in an truly international environment at a client location here in Sydney.And I am still having a it.While Sydney is a melting pot of various cultures and ethinicity I was fortunate enough to be working at a client organisation which promotes diversity in a very big way.The first project team that I was interacting with comprised of a Kiwi (Client Director),British,Scot,Zimbabwean,Phillipino and an Aussie.While most of them had migrated to Australia for a few years now but you still get to experience of the personality traits that a particular ethnic background brings in your social and professional interactions.Aussies are most open and upfront people and they are very professional in their dealings.They seemed to have a non-serious but sincere approach towards work.They are naturally very good communicators and take things in good humor.On a Friday evening its time to hit the bar at 4pm with mates.A beer with a mate is never a 'NO' scenario.Beer,mates & wine (BMW) is what Aussies love.They are also very passionate about their sports be it Rugby (they call football) or cricket.They also love the friendly banter.They take their sports very seriously and passionately love any game they follow.
