Cross-cultural working: understanding diversity for enhanced performance in the workplace
Our community is made up of people from around the world and the great diversity of cultures makes ICFO a fantastic place to work in. However, being effective with colleagues who have different sets of assumptions, beliefs and values can be very challenging.
If you add having to work, sometimes, at a distance, the chances for misunderstanding, conflict and damaged relationships increase dramatically. This is the reality that many researchers and staff members face at ICFO today.
In the scope of the Focus on Cultural Diversity organized by the Diversity and Inclusion Committee and as part of the Plus+ training program, we invite you to participate in the workshop.
Dates: 13th and 16th of June, from 09:30 – 13:30
Target Group: PhD students, Researchers and Group leaders
Please, note that there is a limited number of places available for this workshop.
Applicants will be contacted after the registration deadline to confirm their participation.
Training content:
- Brief introduction to communication
- Working in a remote team
- Understanding culture
- 5 strategies for managing cross-cultural collaboration and challenges at the workplace
- Maxing the mix: Best practices for cross-cultural success
- Your Action Plan: Culture in the workplace
