Leadership and Management
This course draws on interdisciplinary research to provide the participants with the necessary awareness, know-how and practical skills needed to become more effective at intercultural interactions. Although we acknowledge that culture doesn’t equal country, generation, profession, gender or organisational differences and be equally (if not more) prominent, the course examines how nationality may affect how we think and behave and therefore communicate, manage, and collaborate. Intercultural competence does not only enhance leadership but also responds better to a VUCA workplace that requires agility, resilience, and collaboration and communication skills.
Today’s world is increasingly diverse as companies embrace globalisation and respond to the shifting landscape of the pandemic. The ability to effectively interact, work and develop meaningful relationships with professionals across different cultures and social groups is essential in a global workforce.
Discover how VUCA (an environment that is volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) represents a set of challenges that all businesses face, and how becoming culturally competent in a globalised, VUCA world can open new markets and networks, promote mutual enrichment, and improve productivity and efficiency.
Drawing on interdisciplinary research, this course will provide you with the necessary awareness, know-how and practical skills needed to become more effective at intercultural interactions. You will draw on various models to analyse your own experiences in order to develop a personal development plan to address effective interactions at work in the face of significant challenges.
