When Cultures Meet is an insight-provoking, experiential workshop that helps participants navigate the challenges and maximize the opportunities that occur when two or more cultures interact. The workshop provides the knowledge base and methodology for developing robust, integrated cultures that leverage the unique capabilities and contributions of all of an organization’s members. The workshop can accommodate groups of 15-50, or in a customized format, groups of 51-300. The workshop can be delivered in a half-day or full-day format.
This workshop is a blend of:
The first exercise focuses on dominance. One culture with its traditional ways of working faces the challenge of incorporating people with different ways of operating.
The second exercise focuses on organizational culture. Four organizations with differing cultures are developed and then one acquires the others.
These exercises set the stage for dealing with the emotional and strategic issues that arise when different cultures meet, whether in an organizational or societal setting.
Any group, organization, institution, or community that is challenged by the tensions generated by the interaction between two or more cultures.
Consultants working with groups and organizations dealing with mergers and acquisitions, globalization, or diversity & inclusion.
The meeting of cultures happens in a wide array of settings:
Different cultures meeting can be an unsettling process for all parties. The question is: Which way will it go? There are two possibilities:
The creation of a newer, more robust culture, one more robust than any of the individual cultures by themselves.
Participants learn how to stop repeating the same, ineffective patterns that occur so frequently in organizations
