Succeeding across cultures and geographies: building cultural competence

A two-day workshop on The Culture Map with international facilitator Robyn de Villiers. MQA approved.

Doing business today means leading and working with people from many cultures. This two-day programme is built on The Culture Map by INSEAD professor Erin Meyer. It shows where working cultures differ and how to adjust, so teams, clients and partners understand each other.

What you will learn

  • How globalisation and cultural diversity are changing the workplace, and how to benefit from it.
  • How the position of one culture relative to another affects team dynamics.
  • How to avoid easy-to-fall-into cultural traps and use diversity for the best team results.
  • How to lead multicultural teams inclusively and build an inclusive working environment.

Programme

Day 1. Sharing your culture; introduction to The Culture Map; the first four dimensions: Communicating, Evaluating, Leading and Deciding.

Day 2. The final four dimensions: Trusting, Disagreeing, Scheduling and Persuading.
