OUR 2024 VIRTUAL OPEN COURSE CALENDAR

We selected 3 of our most popular training courses for 2024 Open Course Calendar. Each of the courses address a specific level of cultural competence to work more effectively across cultures.

1. Effective intercultural communication
2. Aligning practices for working in culturally diverse teams
3. Leading with a global mindset

Cultural Competence Development

• We apply five steps to enhance the level of cultural competence: starting with creating cultural awareness, building on cultural understanding, practising intercultural skills, designing intercultural strategies and developing intercultural competencies.
• The Mapping-Bridging-Integrating approach helps structuring our workshops: where understanding (from mapping) and communicating (from bridging) get converted into productive results (from integrating).
• We use a range of assessments to increase self-awareness e.g., preferred cultural action type and the impact on communication, preferred  style of working and the impact on practices, or your readiness for leading intercultural interactions through intercultural competencies.

Select your required level, pick the course, register and pay via our online booking forms.
