Cultural Intelligence at work: Intercultural & multicultural Leadership

Culturally Intelligent  organizations work from a “pro-human” perspective and are solution focused, leave tags to the side, are flexible in their positionalities and communicate with each member of the community at an individual level focusing on the aggregate qualities team members bring to the table. Every interaction and negotiation is managed consciously and with a clear intention and purpose -to have an organic culture that embraces every individual as a WHOLE.  Inclusiveness is a natural consequence of cultural intelligence.

In order to become Culturally intelligent, one must overcome a mind frame of tags and  duality where there is a good vs bad,  young vs old, external client vs internal client, male vs female, boss vs employee perception of human beings.  Understanding our belief systems and perceptions are  subjective and learning to manage them  is  key in developing and thriving in a Culture of diversity and multiculturalism.

    There are three stages in developing  Culturally Intelligent Organizations 

         AWARENESS

  • Becoming aware of our own cultural patterns, those of the organizations we work in and those of our interlocutors. 
  • Recognizing how we position ourselves, detecting subtle biases that condition our behaviour and the impact we have in every interaction.
  • Understanding perception is subjective, learning how to question our perception and focusing on self development.

Training programs are the starting point to create Awareness in big groups within an organization. 

IMPLEMENTATION

Putting into practice strategies that will improve Collaborative and intercultural leadership. At this stage our natural reactions are still triggered under stress but we now can choose to approach situations differently. At this stage, it is clear that we have the tools and are able to approach situations differently achieving better results. However, strategizing at this stage may still feel mechanical. Reviewing, discussing and practicing real life cases and role plays help us integrate new behavioural patterns.

Training & Coaching speed up the Implementation stage.

INTEGRATION AND FLOW

Integrating and flowing because Diversity has become second nature to us. We no longer perceive situations in dualistic terms – good/bad, young/old, man/woman, black/white but have a solution focused approach.

Integration & Flow through Coaching. 

Many companies are aware of the importance of promoting a strong culture but struggle with the gap they find between their current culture and their desired culture – incongruencies between what is said and how things really happen. In times of uncertainty, rapid change or stress, people tend to revert to  old habits if the new ones are not really and personally integrated within.

This gap generates confusion and background noise. Cultural transformations occur when every single member of the team  identifies him/herself with the values and philosophy of the company and feels it natural to change his/her behaviour as to be part of something they truly believe in.

“Transformation occurs when the heart and mind are in line. It´s about connecting with the human side of the business”.

 Interpreting behaviours and interactions steming from cultural traits is a skill that can be learned and integrated in your day to day!

Leaders who are Culturally Intelligent  and thrive in intercultural environments have an integrated mindset of Inclusiveness and a humanistic approach to business. They are usually  good observers and good listeners who can interpret cultural differences and adapt their style to their audience. They are good at understanding the degree of protocols needed, timing, dynamics in relationships and adapt their communication style to the situation at hand. Mind and emotions are at a balance.

Cultural Intelligence improves team

·        adaptabilility in times of uncertainty

·        creativity to solve challenging situations

Some tools we use to help your organization

Every process of becoming Culturally Intelligent is unique.  Georgina Barquin works hand in hand with every one of her clients and observes key players & group dynamics,  conducts key interviews and uses  tools such as the Country Navigator, The Hawkins Model of Consciousness, The Barret Model or The Leadership Circle . Based on more than 17,000 hours of experience, she provides key pointers in order to help you in the transformation of your organization.

Multicultural Leadership, Diversity Management and personal development go hand in hand.

  • Country Navigator will give you an insight on individual cultural profiles. Not everyone within the same culture will obtain the same profile. It is interesting to see where people within the organization may clash, what strengths they have and how to better combine their skills and approaches to reap the benefits of diversity within a team. Country Navigator is also useful for expats to understand local dynamics in comparison to their natural preferences.
  • The Hawkins map of consciousness is used to help people visualise where they stand, what emotions are stopping them from developing their full potential and encouraging them to grow and develop further as key players in the development of the organization.
  • The Barret Model provides a clear view of the level of alignment between individual values, current company values and the desired values. This tool provides a clear road map for a well founded Culture Change Management process.
  • Leadership Circle Profile is a 360 Feedback tool that provides insights into key strengths and limiting behaviours and attitudes. Working from one’s strengths and shedding light on limiting behaviours triggers a person’s awareness and motivation to change.
