Session Details
Communication is the cornerstone of success in both our professional and personal lives—it has the power to make or break relationships, projects, and outcomes. Yet, so often, our messages get lost in translation due to cultural differences, individual personalities, or mismatched communication styles.
In today’s diverse workplaces, adapting your communication to your audience—clients, board level executives, or colleagues—is no longer optional; it’s essential. Tailored communication ensures clarity and paves the way for stronger connections, greater influence, and better results.
This session will explore how to refine your communication skills. We’ll discuss how culture and personality influence communication, how to navigate different scenarios effectively, and how to deliver your message in a way that resonates with your audience. With real-world examples and relatable insights, we’ll help you identify strategies to communicate more effectively and connect meaningfully in any situation.
Join two colleagues, one British and the other a Swede, who work in a company with a diverse team representing at least five different cultures. They collaborate with an even broader range of clients globally to share how thoughtful communication can elevate your interactions and help you succeed in every conversation.
