Get Global Ready: Thriving in an Intercultural Workplace, Jun 25

Thursday, June 25, 2015

Workshop Overview:

To be successful in a multicultural workplace, we must be able to collaborate with a wide range of people. And, as our workplaces become more and more global, conflicts in approaches are more prevalent. Thus, understanding differences in styles is paramount, as is making constructive efforts to bridge significant gaps in these various styles.

The Center for Public Health Practice (CPHP) and Center for Intercultural Leadership (CIL) are excited to present "Get Global Ready: Thriving in an Intercultural Workplace," a workshop with Jason Patent, PhD, Director of CIL, and Breidi Truscott Roberts, MA, Intercultural Training Specialist for CIL. Join us to learn how to improve your ability to work effectively with clients from various nationalities as well as on teams in a multicultural workplace.
