Communicating for Multicultural Teams and Organizations (pm option)
Registration
Details
In this session, attendees will learn essential frameworks that first help us understand key cultural differences. Then we'll focus on how one adapts their communication to be effective in other cultural contexts and on multi-cultural teams. This will be accomplished through case studies, role plays, and interactive exercises. An overview of cultural values will be followed by tangible take-aways and tips for mastering a communication across cultures. Key topics include relationship-building, time-management, decision-making, and communication.
Our featured guest, Nicole Barile, is a longstanding expert on cross-cultural communication and works closely with executives at Fortune 500 companies to facilitate their transitions and success at assignments around the globe.
This same session is being offered in the morning from 9:00a-12:00p. Please only sign up for one.
