Managing Global Teams

Doing business internationally is a daily matter for many companies and professionals. Working and managing remotely is also a growing trend, with specific activities and teams located across the globe, under the supervision of headquarter-based managers.

Although managing global teams and team members from different cultures is widespread, most managers underestimate the importance of cross-cultural competence, thinking that as long as everybody can speak the same language (ie, English) everything will run smoothly.

This interactive session focuses on the key challenges related to managing people from different cultures and provides tips to avoid the most common pitfalls of cross-cultural communication.

Together with the &'Understanding cultural difference' module, this webinar is a &'must-do' for anyone wanting to be successful in a global environment.
