Also, my boss at Nokia was from Denmark. His staff was located in the US, while he was in Findland. On a visit to the US, he called our admin (who was Chinese) a Chink, and called one of the product managers (who was an overweight black dude) and overweight epic failure. Since that happened in the US, the HR in US was called and my boss was essentially demoted to appease the two wronged employees.
Lack of “diversity” is their strength. I’m not speaking of how much melanin their employees have in their epidermis, nor whether they have outdoor or indoor plumbing...I’m talking about the shared culture, that has in common specific values that are undeniably positive. If everyone in the country/orginization ascribes to a collection of positive values, regardless of melanin or plumbing, then that country/orginization is destined to succeed.
Unreal. Overweight epic failure. Ouch!
Never got to Finland but did get to Denmark. Great people.
