LEADING A MULTICULTURAL TEAM

Leading a multicultural, and often dispersed team brings many challenges for the manager - expectations, trust, autonomy, and engagement.

This course enables you to strengthen you and your team’s capacity for cooperation, even in a remote environment. 

The training is hands-on and practical and provides you with skills to immediately apply back in your workplace.
