Free webinar: Leadership beyond culture shock
Gabor Holch
Intercultural leadership coach for executives & expats | author of Dragon Suit | keynote speaker | East-West Leadership
When they embark on a business journey across continents, most managers I support know what culture shock is. Yet, they are utterly surprised by the unexpected angles and intensity of the culture shock that hits them.
Why is that?
Mainly because when they hear “intercultural skills”, most managers wish for high-level strategic insight and methods: you know, the kind you get from a seminar or video with flowcharts on how cultures work and five-step behaviour change diagrams.
Then, when they join a video call with people from an unfamiliar culture, they meet deadly silence or find themselves interrupting and triggering resentful reactions. When they enter a meeting room packing several cultures, they shake hands with the wrong person first and wonder why nobody follows the agenda. Reputation, trust and results rise and fall with the basics.
Join my FREE webinar on April 25 to understand, discuss and apply:
- How mangers misunderstand the causes, nature and consequences of culture shock.
- Applicable strategies & practical tips for intercultural communication, sales, entrepreneurship, and leadership.
- How you and your team should prepare for crossing cultural barriers in your daily business.
