Course Title: Diversity in the Workplace
Is this workshop for you?
Understand the concept "diversity in the workplace" and demonstrate a basic understanding of the importance of diversity management.
You work in an environment with colleagues from various different cultures.
You have either experienced or observed conflict in the work place due to cultural differences.
You want to understand and respect cultural differences but still need to get things done effectively.
You don't have time for your team members to work it out through long trial and error.
You really want to do something practical to get the best from working with your colleagues in different cultures
What can I learn on the Cultural Diversity workshop?
Three major benefits from attending the workshop are:
Improved cross-cultural meetings, decisions and implementation of actions
Increased ability to communicate and work effectively with colleagues from other cultures
Reduction in cross-cultural misunderstandings and subsequent costs and delay
The workshop will answer the following questions:
How can we build good working relationships across cultures?
How can I avoid offending people from a different culture?
Why do different nationalities seem to behave differently in meetings?
Is cultural stereotyping or cultural generalisation harmful, or helpful?
Why do some cultures always seem to want to rush in to things?
Why do some nationalities seem to take forever to agree anything?
Would we be more effective, or less, if our team were all the same nationality?
Why do I sometimes get the answer "Yes", when they really mean "No"?
How can I best influence someone from another culture?
When is it not "culture" and when is culture used as an excuse?
