Creating a Cohesive Multicultural Team

Teamwork starts at the individual level. But in a modern workplace that is multicultural and maybe virtual, how can you equip people to quickly build cohesiveness and deliver results? We have the solution.

Creating a Cohesive Multicultural Team is a new course that teaches individuals to become better teammates. The goal is to completely redefine teamwork and collaboration by integrating Patrick Lencioni’s teamwork model from The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, with cross-cultural leadership models that show how culture affects every step of the Lencioni model. The goal is to completely redefine teamwork and collaboration.

The Creating a cohesive Multicultural Team Course was designed specifically to work for individuals; participants do not all need to be part of the same team. Rather, participants can carry the takeaways of this program from one team to the next, enabling a culture of teamwork. Learners at all levels of an organization can benefit from this program and adopt its powerful principles, shape behaviors, and create a common language that empowers people to rewrite what it means to work together.
