INTERNATIONAL MINDSET
"Global mindset refers to the set of qualities and
attributes that help a manager influence individuals,
groups, and organizations from other parts of the world.
It’s part personality, part know-how -- like the ability
to overcome cross-cultural differences in negotiations
or avoid gift-giving gaffes and other cultural
missteps."
Why An International Mindset Is
The Key to Success in Today’s Business World
An international mindset is a must if you want to learn
and master the knowledge and skills that are needed to
become a successful leader in global initiative,
project, or business.
An internation mindset and global intelligence equip you
with the tools and strategies to communicate effectively
both within your global business and with international
colleagues wherever you go.
Having an international mindset helps boost
collaboration, productivity, and profits of your global
business as well as to make a greater global impact..
and project within the business.
Cultural Differences
"People value different things. For example, some
cultures value clear, concise communication, while
others value tactful, nuanced language. Neither is right
or wrong; they're just different. Approaching
differences with curiosity rather than judgment is
fundamental to leading with a global mindset."
Smart Investment
"The complexities of cultures and business means it’s a
smart business investment for organizations to adopt an
international mindset and actively encourage and support
employees to also think in the same way.
An international mindset can also help alleviate issues
within the team, offer unique opportunities that may not
have otherwise been realized as well as offer the
ability to view problems and situations from a variety
of perspectives.
It should also be noted that having an international
mindset goes beyond being able to communicate
effectively with colleagues in an international setting.
An international mindset also means you understand and
know how to work with business customs and laws that are
different from the domestic business place."
