Global Mindset: Expanding Your Potential Beyond the Comfort Zone
Program Overview:
What new opportunities become possible when people open their minds beyond what they’re used to? And what risks do companies face when employees stay limited in their thinking or avoid differences?

Through discussion, reflection, and practical activities, participants will:
- Broaden their thinking and become more globally aware

- Learn to work and communicate effectively across cultures
- Discover their own purpose and actions for global growth
