Before you started your current job, you felt ready for working with another culture. But nothing prepared you for the head-spinning experience of colleagues, bosses, clients and suppliers from all corners of China, Asia and the planet. For the conflicting styles, habits, rules and demands of departments, branches, locations and functions within your own firm. For managers and their successors rewriting priorities and plans overnight, for one boss rewarding what another criticises, for being yourself at one meeting and someone else at another.
Join this seminar with intercultural leadership consultant Gabor Holch, and regain your orientation with the help of old and new intercultural leadership methods:
- Learn the original meaning “Orientation” and how leaders have used it to direct themselves
- Discuss case studies brought by Gabor, your fellow attendees and maybe even you
- Understand how cultural pressure affects your brain and behaviour
- Learn to scientifically map personalities, national and corporate cultures around you
- Learn to solve leadership dilemmas through personality-culture matches and mismatches
- Use the Oriented Strategy Matrix to draft person- and culture-specific leadership solutions
- Map your team, client, supplier, boss or anyone that comes to mind
- Discuss your top leadership challenges with Gabor and participating managers
