It’s a big world, full of difference and diversity. How you see others is influenced by your own cultural perspective, and how others see you is influenced by their cultural perspective. What happens when you speak? Do people from other cultures understand you in the way you intended? And what happens with different cultures in the work place? How rigid or flexible is their approach to rules? Is formal or informal behaviour expected? And how do different cultures approach time keeping? In todays’ global business environment, it is essential to learn to navigate across different cultural landscapes. You need a good set of tools to do this. You need an understanding of how different cultures trade and do business. An insight into how different cultures communicate and a clear idea of how different cultures manage people. To be a savvy global traveller you need to be willing to undertake the journey of understanding other cultures. Develop cultural intelligence so you can communicate confidently across cultures
