Over past management research has positively identified benefits of cultural diversity and close integration on the organizational productivity. What we see lacking is emergence of contemporary Indian management ideas, framework and thought processes. Vivekananda was one of the first Indians with the ability to bridge Oriental and Western management philosophies, mold Vedanta within prevalent western beliefs. This trait of acknowledging innate diversity in the global world and yet finding common ground of brotherhood and humanity has been presented in a structured framework as part of this paper. We belief this framework has the potential to establish new paradigms of cultural acceptance and strengthen the increasingly globalized corporations.

Keywords: Cultural diversity, Contemporary Indian management, Universalism, Diversity, Integration.
