Diversity is a reality. Being culturally competent in today's multicultural and globalised world is an essential skill needed to work effectively with ethnically diverse colleagues and clients.
The Building Intercultural Competency course, designed by the Centre for Applied Cross-cultural Research, will develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes that prepare professionals to work effectively with people from cultures other than their own, including clients and co-workers. This course is also effective for those who plan to travel, work or live outside of New Zealand.
This 1-day course will help participants recognise their own cultural lens and how they apply it in everyday life to cross-cultural interactions. This practical course allows participants to use real-time activities to test out and extend individual cultural competency.
The course is suitable for anyone who manages or works with culturally diverse employees or clients. It also suits people who plan to travel, work or live outside New Zealand.
