What's inside

Four courses

Introduction to Multinational and Cross-Cultural Teams

(0 hours)
Do you work on a multinational team or want to? This course will help you understand the challenges that arise because of culture, how to navigate them, and, most importantly, turn them into opportunities for success.

Cross-Cultural Communication and Management

(0 hours)
Communication is much more than words. Cultural communication is more than language. What you say is never interpreted exactly as you meant it and what you hear is never what was meant by what was said. When you mix in the differences of how different cultures draw lines between social interactions and work interactions, give and receive feedback, and engage in and resolve conflict, the barrier to understanding can feel impossible to overcome.

Cross-Cultural Virtual Spaces and Teams

(0 hours)
Airplanes gave us the ability to travel across oceans to visit international team members. But virtual spaces are now bringing us together in an instant. New rules have been written, and as work-from-home is on the rise, re-written, and they bring their own unique cross-cultural challenges.

Leadership in Multinational, Cross-Cultural Teams

(0 hours)
Whether you are currently a manager or not, you should now be ready to learn to play a leadership role in a multinational team. Leadership is more than management, and culture greatly affects what is expected of leaders.
