Global Inclusion

This session will explore the inclusion challenges and opportunities faced by global organisations. Employees can be separated by thousands of miles and spread across several time zones, which in itself is tricky, but to grow inclusion across cultural and legal differences presents particular challenges. The risks of getting it wrong can be enough to make employers give up on a global Inclusion and Diversity agenda but the benefits are substantial if you are able to flex your approach.

It’s never been more complex being a leader: besides the ability to successfully navigate unpredictable markets and economies, societal changes happening at a speedier rate than ever before have helped change employees’ perceptions of what constitutes ‘great’ leadership. Leaders now are not only expected to follow the latest global people and market trends, they are also expected to be able to speak to workforce demographics that have changed considerably in the past 20 years – from more diversity across all personal characteristics, to global movements that increases multi-cultural diversity.

Whether leading a multinational organisation or a multicultural team, global leadership is an essential skill of today’s world. It can be defined as the capacity of an individual or organisation to positively influence people and the public in multiple regions, countries, or cultures. While some may see this a challenge, we encourage all to see this as an exciting opportunity: global leadership enables leaders to harness the power of diversity whilst disrupting status quo towards more equitable, inclusive and sustainable businesses – and world!

Join us as we explore strategies and skills for leaders to successfully navigate a complex, unpredictable and increasingly demanding global environment – while inspiring others and motivating themselves in the process!

This session will provide tools and techniques for individuals working or wishing to work in multicultural environments to better succeed at understanding and interacting in culturally diverse settings, wherever you operate. We will explore how culture influences behaviours and interactions, and shapes how we may interpret and navigate situations at work and beyond. Cultural awareness helps unleash organisational diversity and inclusion, foster good relations with colleagues as well as customers and partners – which is why you shouldn’t miss this webinar!

The risks of getting it wrong can be enough to make employers give up on a global Inclusion and Diversity agenda but the benefits are substantial if you are able to flex your approach.  What works in the UK isn’t necessarily going to work globally, and we will be exploring what you can do to navigate a global environment with respect and sensitivity.

Staff networks operating in global and multinational organisations have a fantastic opportunity to make an impact not only in their local markets, but also in colleagues from across the globe. There are also challenges to be considered: how do you engage and inspire people in countries with extremely different cultures, sensitivities, understandings of inclusion, not to mention legislation?
