Cohesion Through Diversity
My focus in this talk is on organizations, businesses, volunteer groups, or any other group made up of people from different cultures for the purpose of creating common cause whether that is a product, a service, or a benefit for the community. To develop this skill a person needs to know and understand different cultures as well as know how to apply the basic principles of organizational development and leadership.
Barbara Steinwachs describes BaFa’ BaFa’
If you have the time & enough players, this is the cross-cultural game of choice, bar none. I have run it dozens of times, often with Sandy Fowler, for such groups as teacher training days, the Foreign Service Institute for persons about to go abroad, university international centers, teenage retreats, persons form other countries coming into the US, race relations retreats, MBA orientations, etc.
Creating a New School Culture
Today, my goal is to give you some suggestions for creating a new school culture in which staff members, teachers and students feel safe, feel valued and have the opportunity to be as productive and creative as each person wants to be.
