Cultural Intelligence & Global Competence
Dr Margaret Byrne is a regular presenter at the Asialink Leaders Program. In this Asialink video, Margaret debunks myths about the importance of etiquette* when doing business in Asia, and instead emphasising the need for a broader shift in thinking and communication. Margaret also gives her assessment of whether Australian businesses are understanding the importance of engaging with Asia.
Take a look at Dr Margaret Byrne speaking on global competencies.
* UGM adopts an evidence-based, cultural intelligence approach to the related issues of cultural diversity, cultural awareness and international business. We focus on the cultural competence needed to implement strategic plans. This involves developing specific intercultural (or cross cultural) skills to behave effectively and appropriately in relation to cultural differences.
