On 20 January, the 3rd session of the Speaker Series of WILA took place: Cross-cultural negotiations and why they matter, by speaker Tasneem Chopra OAM and moderated by Judith Miller, Wrays (LES Australia & New Zealand. We wanted to share the recording of this speaker series session on cross-cultural negotiations  https://vimeo.com/1159588886/fdee9ba9e2. Judith did a fantastic job moderating, and our speaker is very knowledgeable. A few takeaways:

  • Convey information in a way that is consumable
  • Misunderstanding of culture leads to unintended effects
  • Women don’t lack capacity; they lack opportunities
  • Hiring diverse candidates is a best practice to address these cross-cultural negotiations

We look forward to the next speaker series event on International Women’s Day. Stay tuned for that content, it is sure to be a showstopper!
