Overcoming Cultural Conflicts in the European Community
A couple of years ago, View Magazine called our series, Diversity: Creating Success for Business and People "one of the best products about diversity on the market." And customers agreed!
Now, we can offer you a follow-up series from the same company, ARMC. Building a Diverse Workforce for the Global Millennium is a 20-volume series that covers a huge variety of diversity issues.
Each program also presents critical business concepts like building trust and respect, performance appraisals, team building and leadership.
Program 20: Building Teams in the Global Marketplace: Overcoming Cultural Conflicts in the European Community
When teams are comprised of people from different cultures, the opportunity for misunderstanding arises. This scenario shows how different approaches between French, British, American and German cultures can cause communication problems.
When you are building hign performance teams across cultures, it is vital that each team member respects each other’s differences, as well as being willing to come to some common agreements on how they will cooperate. In this scenario, you will see how communication can break down and be misinterpreted among a cross-cultural team.
