Culture on a Virtual Team – Does it matter?

The Remote Lab

This session will focus on virtual collaboration and cultural diversity.

Working remotely often means we are working with colleagues from different countries. But that should not be a problem, since you are staying in your own country, right? Wrong. We bring our cultural assumptions and ways of working to the virtual collaboration, and that means cultural diversity offers its challenges and opportunities. Theresa has recently published her book Virtual Teams Across Cultures: Create Successful Teams Around the World and during the research found three ways cultural diversity impacts virtual teams. During the session, she will explore this topic as well as what it means to develop cultural competence while sitting in your own country. The session is designed specially for anyone who leads a multicultural team or works virtually with stakeholders in other countries. More about Theresa:Website:  www.interact-global.netBook webpage: https://www.interact-global.net/book/Newsletter:  https://interact-global.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d6b3032a9fe186ca084597946&id=7c25fa7802FORMAT OF THE SESSIONThis is not a “webinar” meaning that you will be engaging in live conversations with real human beings who share your challenges.
