Culture and Consequence: Navigating Successfully in the Global Age
Join us at International House Berkeley on an exceptional global journey as we explore how cultural concepts of time, distance, communication, health, power and child rearing impact our perceptions and influence daily interactions and world events.
- Learn why we look at the same thing yet see something different.
- Discover how to hear what is not said and to question without asking.
- Delve into the world of gestures and hear firsthand accounts of cultural disconnects and diplomacy.
