G | Intercultural Competencies for Global Project Work

Global project work is increasingly organized around multiple locations with multinational members from a variety of organizations. This diversity provides a valuable range of talents and skills, but it also generates challenges of different expectations about communication and the entire basis of project management and organization. This workshop will examine the impact of a wide variety of cultural differences on project team effectiveness.
