More about this course
  • On this four-week course, you’ll learn how to thrive in a culturally diverse context, whether this diversity comes from nationality, ethnicity, organisation, or generation
  • You’ll learn to move past your own ‘cultural lens’ to develop your cultural intelligence and adapt to different culturally diverse situations, such as working with overseas clients
  • To help increase your cultural intelligence, you’ll delve into the TRAFIC model, based largely on the theory of Edward Hall and Geert Hofstede
  • With this tool, you’ll explore the cultural behavioural trends of the majority of people in world cultures and how to progress from low CQ to high CQ
  • You’ll investigate different attitudes towards time and how managed or flexible time can highlight differences between people
  • By the end, you’ll be able to identify unconscious biases and workplace values and how you might positively influence behaviour in culturally diverse contexts
