    Hi

    Strange question I guess but I am wondering is it acceptable to mention the fact I manage/lead a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic team on my CV?

    On the one hand it shouldn't matter who was on your team or from what background they were.

    On the other hand it does show ability to adapt my leadership / mgmt skills to differing circumstances and customs, if ya get me.

    (Of course I wouldn't be mentioning specific ethnicities in case ya wonder).

    Opinions appreciated,
    bid.

    Why not? It is a benefit though don't make it a main point of the job but rather as part of something else.

    It's pretty common to write "experience in multinational environment" or "leading multicultural team" in your CV, go ahead!
