Key benefits from this course
This course will help you develop your own style for multicultural leadership success:
WHAT? We live in a complex world and it’s a challenge to interact and communicate with others who are different from us.
WHY? Because we are diverse in our attitudes, values, beliefs, behaviors, and experiences, it’s hard to know how to act and react in situations where differences abound.
HOW? This course will take you through a three-step process of awareness, knowledge, and skills for your global leadership success.
You will walk away with an action plan to help you achieve multicultural management skills that will help you AND your team achieve cohesion, understanding, and success at work - whether at home or abroad!
