Cross-Culture Leadership 跨文化领导力
We may achieve brilliant business success in one country or region, but when expanding into a new market with a different culture and language, we face significant challenges. What can be transferred is the business mindset, while what needs adjustment is based on local culture how to attract talent, build a team, establish an effective organization, and expand into another successful business landscape!
A successful cross-cultural leader must have a clear understanding of the differences in key dimensions among different cultures and the impact of these differences on managing employees, leading teams, and implementing company business plans. Therefore, they can quickly adjust their leadership style and behaviour to lead business operations in more countries towards greater success!
我们可能在某一个国家或地域取得辉煌的商业成功，却在开拓另一个有不同文化和语言的新市场时面临很大的挑战。可以迁移的是商业思路，需要调整的是如何根据当地文化吸引人才，建立团队，搭建有效组织，开拓另一个成功的业务版图！
一个成功的跨文化领导者必须清楚了解，不同文化在关键维度的差异以及这些差异在管理员工，带领团队，落地公司业务计划上的影响，因此他能快速调整领导力风格和行为，带领更多国家的业务走向更大的成功！
