The group project where everyone is working hard — but somehow still pulling in different directions. The teammate who goes quiet, the student who is always late.
The moment you can't tell if you misunderstood someone, or if something else is going on. Sounds familiar?
We all carry invisible assumptions about how things should work — and in diverse teams, those assumptions collide. In this one-day training, you'll learn to recognize your own blind spots, slow down your judgments, and build skills that make collaboration feel easier and more productive.
What you'll take away:
- A clearer sense of your own perspective and how it shapes your interactions
- Practical tools for navigating differences in communication, hierarchy, and time expectations
- More confidence in diverse teams — in your studies and beyond
For anyone curious about working across cultures. No prior knowledge needed — just an open mind!
