Leading Change Across Borders
Synopsis:
Add the typical change project implementation issues to the risk of doing business in international, diverse, or intercultural contexts. Mistrust between individuals and between organizations can flare up quickly as people misunderstand each other's messages and intentions due to their different cultural perspectives.

This hands - on, "earning while learning" Leading Change across Borders workshop increases the speed and degree of success of global change projects by making sure your strategy is supported by adequately addressing the people, process, and intercultural/global side of the change execution equation. Participants apply a filter of intercultural competencies, cultural dimensions, and culture specific values using core change processes or levers in order to increase financial results of projects that involve diverse or intercultural stakeholders and environments.
Goals:
Identify the challenges and success factors for implementing change in a culturally diverse and/or international environment. Apply a systematic approach to implement change successfully across cultures.

Training Content - Participants will learn:
a) Global Team Assessment:
 
Pre-session needs assessment: With the Change Coach, identify each participant's current global change project they will bring to the workshop, and the unique challenges they face
b) Building Global Teams:
 
Global Competency Review: Participants integrate the knowledge, skills, and awareness acquired in previous global leadership workshops, such as Building Global Teams and Global Leader Competencies. Leadership and cultural dimensions that are reviewed may include differing perspectives on: planning, decision making and problem solving, employee involvement, power, etc.
c) Media Choices for Communicating Across Cultures:
 
Global Project Profile: Using their change projects, participants evaluate project status using the Successful Global Change Equation and cultural factors in order to address gaps and move the change process ahead.
d) Conflict Resolution:
 
Core Change Processes and Tools: Participants use five core change processes Global Competency, Clarity, Commitment, Capability, and Monitoring Results to develop an implementation plan that addresses the critical change levers for their project. Participants apply a filter of intercultural competencies, cultural dimensions, and culture specific values to the change process.
e) Trust-building:
 
Live Change Case: A live client specific business case can be used as the case study. Participants apply the global change processes and tools to analyze and evaluate a current real change effort that is presented by an internal business person.
f) Achieving Results while Managing Differences Participants:
  Post session coaching and a follow up session: Momentum and accountability is built in to support the team in their on going change implementation.
