Complimentary Webinar Presented By:
Featuring authors Andy Molinsky and David Livermore.
Description: The advent of automation and AI has instigated a seismic transformation in the nature of work. Repetitive, routine tasks are being delegated to machines, while complex, interpersonal tasks are left to human intervention. As remote work becomes the new norm, the ability to communicate and collaborate effectively is more vital than ever before. Furthermore, the global workforce is becoming increasingly diverse, with individuals from a variety of cultures, backgrounds, and experiences collaborating together. The global migration situation has become painfully dynamic, influenced by a broad range of factors, such as political, economic, social, and environmental drivers, in addition to ongoing challenges and risks experienced by migrants.
It has become increasingly apparent that the need for Cultural Intelligence development is a global imperative across a broad spectrum of industries and job types. Without a comprehensive understanding of how to navigate culturally diverse workforces, it is impossible to develop crucial interpersonal and communication skills, critical thinking, creativity, adaptability, teamwork, and leadership skills.
Cultural Intelligence Center & Quiet Tenacity Inc. invite you to participate in a vibrant discussion on the measures that can be taken at both personal and organizational levels to prepare for the impending changes in the workplace and in our personal lives.
By the end of this webinar, participants will:
