CULTURAL DIVERSITY SKILLS TRAINING WORKSHOP
This course is a series of cross-cultural training tools and cultural diversity activities that can help build cultural diversity skills in the workplace and with clients. Our cultural competence skills workshop is critical for managing cultural diversity and enables your organization and your leaders to meet the high-performance demands of an increasingly global economy. Fathom’s cultural training course is a result of the collaboration of dozens of acclaimed intercultural experts from 35 countries. There are over 40 culture specific modules available.
Seminar participants learn a values-based process for navigating cross-cultural communication and to develop practical strategies for driving cultural understanding. Case studies and critical incidents are used for the specific cultures being learned. The course will boost productivity by helping students learn specific behaviors and values to better manage cultural expectations. Practicing cultural competence skills helps to build an understanding why people do what they do and builds cultural awareness that leads to more effective collaboration and better decisions for your organization.
