The Four Skills of Cultural Diversity Competence, 4th Edition eBook

Through a step-by-step format for entering into and developing cultural competence, Hogan’s text helps students acquire the skills necessary to become culturally competent practitioners. Drawing strongly on the author’s cultural diversity work, the book emphasizes the fundamental premise that cultural competence is an ongoing and multilayered process involving personal, interpersonal, and organization-wide levels. The book’s “”four skills”” approach addresses two key themes: the first two skills increase cultural awareness and understanding, while the third and fourth skills foster effective interpersonal techniques and organization change strategies. For this edition, Hogan includes recent research on ethnic identity and acculturation, as well as material on issues related to national culture and immigration. Within each chapter, Hogan combines both cognitive and experiential learning, thus ensuring that students have the knowledge and ability to apply the core concepts they are learning.
