Description: You’ve probably heard the term, “corporate culture.” It is the values and practices that define an organization, the stories and aspirations that unite employees and drive strategy and decisions. Such culture is hard enough to foster and sustain when people speak the same language and come from similar backgrounds. How do you communicate expectations and reinforce the right behaviors when people come from different cultural belief systems or live across the global? Intercultural management is study of building bridges in order to “get things done.” In particular, it is the art of science of deepening relationships and fostering teamwork, both at an interpersonal and operational level, to avoid misunderstandings, minimize conflicts, tear down silos, and boost consistency. This course covers each of these objectives, outlining strategies for successful navigating cultural differences, leveraging diversity for mutual benefit, and finding common cause that translates into stronger ties and higher performance.
