The North American workforce is undergoing rapid transformation. In the United States, from 2011 to 2020, the country saw the arrival of a significant 10.3 million immigrants. Presently, immigrants make up 13.7% of the U.S. population, a threefold increase since 1970. Meanwhile, Canada has embraced over 1.5 million immigrants, primarily in the economic category, within the past five years. Notably, approximately 75% of Canada’s population growth can be attributed to immigration. Looking ahead to 2036, immigrants are projected to comprise up to 30% of Canada’s population, marking a substantial increase from 20.7% in 2011. In this evolving landscape, maintaining competitiveness and achieving leadership within industries demand that leaders not only welcome educated and experienced immigrants into their workforce but also acquire the essential skills to drive results through culturally diverse teams.
