Costly Mistakes: How To Get The Best For What You Paid For in Cultural Training

Saison 2 · Épisode 21

mardi 20 août 2024 • Durée 22:23

When you are in the market for services or products, price will only be a concern in the absence of value. The same is true for cultural training, coaching, and consulting services. In this episode, we'll dive into the sometimes overlooked truth that opting for lower rates in cultural training can result in subpar outcomes. We'll explore why quality cultural training is an investment that pays off, especially in global business environments where understanding cultural nuances is crucial. Cheap services might seem like a good deal at first, but they often lack the depth, expertise, and tailored approach necessary to create meaningful and lasting change. Tune in as we discuss how to evaluate the true value of cultural training services and why the adage "you get what you pay for" rings especially true in this field.

Planning Your Return: 6 Big Tips for Expats Returning Home

Saison 2 · Épisode 20

mardi 13 août 2024 • Durée 20:42

In this episode, we dive into the unique challenges expats face when returning to their home country after an international work assignment. We’ll explore why early planning is essential to make the transition smoother and how having a slush fund can help bridge the gap during potentially longer periods without predictable income. We'll also discuss the changing cost of living — what might have shifted while you were away — and why it's crucial to broaden your perspective on career opportunities, possibly even considering a different path. We’ll tackle the question, “Will anyone care?”, addressing the lack of understanding around your experiences and the importance of communicating why your time abroad matters.

Finally, we’ll reflect on what “home” might mean to you now and how your new global perspective will likely influence how you see your old surroundings.
Tune in to gain insights and strategies for navigating this complex, often emotional, journey back home.

Are We Going Un-Woke? The Ebbs & Flows of DE&I

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

mardi 14 mai 2024 • Durée 58:31

When the world seems brimming with division, can the concepts of DEI and cultural intelligence be the bridge to unity? That's the question at the heart of our conversation with Taj Suleyman, DEI Director for the City of Springfield, Missouri. Together, we venture into the nuances of language power dynamics and the regional cultural quirks that shape our discussions on social issues. Taj brings his seasoned perspective to the table, illuminating how charged terms might obstruct or pave the way to genuine understanding and progress.

Navigating the sensitive terrains of privilege and power, this episode uncovers the dual nature of privilege—both the shadows it casts and the potential light it can shed on pathways to change. We share candid personal stories that reflect the diverse spectrums of upbringing and survival, and how these narratives weave into our capacity to foster connections across cultural lines. The dialogue takes a deep look at the intricacies of deconstructing and reconstructing societal systems, with inclusivity at the core of the conversation. It's a reflection on leadership, empathy, and the roles we play within our communities.

In the wake of pivotal social justice movements, the imperative for equity and inclusion has never been clearer. We delve into how conversations around diversity can catalyze change, emphasizing the critical role of emotional intelligence and empathy in acknowledging the complex mosaic of identities. This episode does not merely aim to dissect the concepts; it strives to understand the practical implementation of fostering a sense of belonging and recognizing the rich tapestry of intercultural identities. Join us as we explore the continuous journey toward a society where diversity and inclusion are not endpoints but part of an ever-evolving process.

Showing Appreciation Across Cultures. How we show it, and how we like to receive it.

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mardi 7 mai 2024 • Durée 23:13

How we show love for the work of others is not the same around the world. The way we recognize and reward the efforts of team members needs to take cultural differences into account. While words of affirmation work well in Brazil and China, the best way to show appreciation in Türkiye and Thailand is through acts of service. So let's look at the "love languages" of appreciation at work.

Here's a link to the study we reference in the video: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/happybytes/202404/surprising-ways-different-cultures-want-to-be-appreciated

Exploring the Realities of Personal Authenticity in a Corporate Environment

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

mardi 30 avril 2024 • Durée 18:39

Navigating the age-old conundrum of whether to bring your entire being into the workplace is like tiptoeing through a minefield of identity politics and professional decorum. We humans, bless our intricately woven souls, are kaleidoscopes of identities; we're not just cogs in the corporate machine but intricate tapestries of experiences, beliefs, and quirks.

Culture, that invisible hand guiding our social dance, shapes how we approach our 9-to-5 grind. But here's the rub: while some argue for the liberation of bringing your whole self to the watercooler chats and boardroom powwows, there are valid reasons why you might not want to lay bare your soul amidst the Excel sheets and office banter. And let's face it, it's probably the last thing your boss wants too. After all, not every facet of your being is pertinent to the quarterly reports or client presentations. We all prefer the polished, Instagram-filtered version of ourselves in the workplace, where the rough edges are smoothed, and the highlights shine like a well-edited podcast episode.

Why Do We Work? Unearthing How Organizations Can Tap Into The Motivations Of Their Employees

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

mardi 23 avril 2024 • Durée 20:46

Why do we go to work? Well, most likely, we do so in order to make a living and provide for ourselves and others. And yet, understanding the reasons of why we work transcends mere economic necessity; it delves into the areas of culture, societal norms, and individual aspirations. Culture shapes our perspectives and attitudes towards labor; it also defines the relationship between employees and the organizations they serve.

Cultures around the world charge work with various meanings, whether it's viewed as a means of sustenance, a path to self-fulfillment, or a communal obligation. Whether driven by a collective ethos emphasizing communal harmony or by an individualistic pursuit of personal fulfillment, cultural values intricately interlace with work attitudes, influencing everything from work-life balance preferences to the extent of loyalty towards employers.

Measuring Happiness Can Be A Misery: Beyond the World Happiness Report

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 9 avril 2024 • Durée 17:32

Can we measure how happy big groups of people are? The World Happiness Report tries to do exactly that – for entire nations! It is like a big mood check for countries. The WHR is a yearly ranking that looks at how happy people are around the world based on factors like income, social support, life expectancy, freedom to make life choices, generosity, and perceptions of corruption. Basically, it tries to measure how satisfied and content people feel in different countries, giving us a snapshot of global well-being.

The challenge in a ranking like this is that happiness is probably one of the least understood and most sought-after emotions and experiences in human life. What does it mean to be happy? How do you know that you are doing well? Turns out there is no universal definition for this pleasant emotion.
Even people from countries that rank highest in the WHR are wondering how they made it to the top, like the Finnish-American professor of sociology, Jukka Savolainen (https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2021/04/finland-happiness-lagom-hygge.html). Savolainen suspects his compatriots evaluate their lives and their life expectations in such a way that their actual life circumstances approximate their highest expectations. Happiness - by this definition - means that there is only a small gap between what people look for in life and what they actually find.

However, research consistently shows that different cultures around the world have unique concepts of well-being and happiness. While it is probably safe to assume that every human in any society has a desire to be happy, studies suggest that we aren’t completely alike in our happiness and that our interpretation of happiness may very well be dependent on our cultural contexts. As a result, this would affect how countries rank on the WHR.

Unlocking Global Business Success through Internal and External Partnerships: Interview with Chief People Officer Addie Johnsen

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mardi 2 avril 2024 • Durée 27:33

Strategically establishing and sustaining company culture is no easy feat for any organization. It can be quite a challenge particularly for smaller and midsize enterprises (SMEs). Lean human resource departments in global companies have to get creative when building and developing effective teams across international branch offices.

Meet Addie Johnsen, who serves as Chief People Officer at Aperian, and discover the profound influence of cultural intelligence on global operations. Addie has experienced the highs and lows of foreign assignments, and now shares her experience of navigating the intricate dances of corporate culture in her role. Grasp the importance of understanding cultural nuances as Addie reveals how her role transcends the traditional spectrum of HR, advocating for a deeper cultural understanding within the workforce.

We reflect on the international corporate landscape, and discuss the importance of forging durable partnerships with vendors and service providers, a cornerstone for organizational success across national and international borders. With an impressive 18-year tenure, Addie offers valuable insights into aligning with partners who resonate with your company's values, and the subtle balance of nurturing workplace friction that spurs growth without compromising phycological safety.
We also challenge the concept of hiring "for cultural fit," proposing a fresh lens to view the so-called "soft skills" — now rebranded as critical skills — as indispensable competencies for collaboration and innovation in today's diverse work environments.
Join us for this episode that celebrates the human element as the driving force in business.

Embracing the Unknown: Overcoming Fear to embrace Cross-Cultural Adventures

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

mardi 26 mars 2024 • Durée 21:39

Ever felt a twinge of unease at the thought of venturing into unfamiliar territory? Our latest episode peels back the layers of fear, the fear of the foreign, the unknown, the undiscovered. From a story of encouraging a loved one's trepidation towards traveling to a country, ew dig into the intricate web of influences, from the primal instincts of our amygdala to the vast, sometimes skewed, media portrayals that shape how we see the world beyond our borders. Together, we navigate through these instinctual fears with an aim to cultivate an eagerness for embracing new adventures.

Imagine fear not as a wall, but as a gateway to untapped strength and growth. We recount the story of a psychologist who, once bullied as a child, found resilience through his boxing career—a powerful example of fear serving as both a shield and a hindrance. As we dissect the acronym F.E.A.R. (False Evidence Appearing Real), we unravel the idea that our trepidations are often just distress signals based on what might never come to pass. This conversation is an invitation to share in the personal transformations that can emerge from reassessing the fears that once held us back.

We're not just your hosts—we're your coaches, ready to celebrate those breakthrough moments that redefine our lives. So, remember to hit subscribe, because every episode promises to be a mosaic of insights, experiences, and contagious curiosity for the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our world.
