MAXIMIZE PRODUCTIVITY IN YOUR ORGANIZATION

Is It Misunderstandings Or Just A Culture Shock?

Although we speak the same language, when we begin to interact with others we realize quickly that there are different points of view, mostly between what may or may not be appropriate. It is there where there may be misunderstandings or bad communication that creates low productivity in organizations.

The lack of cultural awareness and of a global mentality in this globalized era in which we live continues to cause cultural shocks in today’s organizations. Learning how to interpret not only our own culture but the behavior of others according to their own perspective is an indispensable skill for the global leader.

How can we understand others from their culture’s point of view?

VISION: THE KEY ELEMENT OF EVERY LEADER.

How Can A Global Leader Articulate His Vision?

One of the hallmarks that every leader has is his vision. Vision is the indispensable element of every leader.

leader

Vision is what guides the leader. It allows him to visualize his goal. It gives him the internal energy to walk towards the future. Without vision, the leader does not have passion. Furthermore, nobody will follow him because he does not have a defined course. Walt Disney is the best example of this: he had a clear vision, which led him to success despite all his difficulties. Today we know how his vision materialized and still continues to be successful.

Is your vision clear and defined?

The Cultural Lens Has An Impact In The Way We Do Things

Culture is often compared to an iceberg, in the sense that what we can perceive is only at the top. The top of the “cultural iceberg” is made up of things we can observe and of what people allow us to see – what they wear, do, eat, and say.

However, the greater part of the iceberg lies below the surface and is not visible. That part is made up of values, assumptions, personality, beliefs and other characteristics that shape and drive behavior.
