Cultural Intelligence - the future of management!
Last week I was fortunate to attend the 37th edition of the LocWorld. The biggest event in the Globalization / Localization industry. It took place in Warsaw, a beautiful Central European city where its people treated us really good; they were super friendly with us, very warm. I'm really thankful to the lovely Polish people I met there! thank you guys!
In my post this week I bring a summary of the presentation we gave on How to develop your Cultural Intelligence? My talented and lovely colleague Maria Kania-Tasak (@MariaTaniaKasak) and I talked about what we believe is the future of management. Cultural Intelligence is like a superpower :) Do you want to know about how to develop this superpower? Well, I have great news for you! I have created an eBook which is a summary of the presentation we gave and it contains some reflections and tips to work towards the journey of developing our CQ. I hope you like the summary. Enjoy!

Certain words in business settings push all my buttons: 'synergies,' 'strategic meetings,' and 'thought leadership.'
The worst offender? Synergy. Lately, though, another term has been creeping up my list: 'educated.' In localization, we often say, 'We need to educate stakeholders.' But do they really want to be educated? No, they want to understand how localization impacts them.
Instead of teaching, we need to translate localization into business value.
