When given specific cultural training, global managers can develop the skills needed to interact effectively and productively in the global workplace. In the On Demand Seminar, “Why Culture Matters When Doing Business Globally: It’s Not Just the Do’s and Don’ts,” Barbara Boldt, principal at Dynamic Global Communication LLC, presents an overview of how cultural competency is defined and highlights some skills that can increase managers’ ability to succeed in the complex and competitive world of global business.

In this 52-minute On Demand Seminar, produced by GlobalBusinessProfessor.com and GlobalAutoIndustry.com, Boldt defines culture and cultural competence, and outlines the skills that can be learned so that managers can become more effective and productive.
