Working effectively and inclusively across cultures.

Have you ever felt frustrated over the lack of response from someone who never seems to respect the deadlines? Have you ever attended meetings that run over, where the agenda is notoriously treated as barely a guidance? Have you ever been cut of short in the middle of the nice chat at the beginning of a zoom call? Or on the flip side: have you felt increasingly nervous that the chit-chat takes all the valuable time when you could have been discussing business topics? The chances are what you have experienced has been a result of a cultural clash. Join this session to learn how to recognize and overcome cultural differences to successfully navigate an international working environment.

About the speaker

Magdalena is an Intercultural Communication (IC) enthusiast and a certified trainer with a passion for helping people who work in culturally diverse teams develop cultural competency - ultimately allowing them to thrive.

Before stepping in the IC field having worked for nearly a decade in a number of international companies, over the past 8 years Magdalena has held global commercial roles in a multinational corporate. She has gained extensive firsthand experience in navigating a multicultural business environment.

Born and raised in Poland, Magdalena has spent different lengths of time living an expat life. Just under seven years ago her carrier brought her to the Netherlands where she currently lives and works.

“In my daily job I have witnessed how (inter)cultural competency – and the lack of it - can truly impact teams' performance and job satisfaction. How much energy could be saved and how much frustration avoided should people be better equipped to work across cultures”.

And it is why I am driven to share my experience and knowledge in the field of intercultural communication.”

Sociologist with major in cultural anthropology by training, and an avid traveler by nature – Magdalena is passionate about enabling people to see themselves and others with a new lens, turning every intercultural encounter into an opportunity for creating an inclusive and equitable environment for all.
