Successful Global Experiences: Preparing Students & Companies for Inclusive Experiences
A key benefit of global experiential learning is stepping outside of one’s comfort zone to gain insight and appreciation for the broader world. However, what happens when expectations between a student’s cultural understanding and norms clash with the cultural and company norms of the organization where the student is interning? In this session, speakers will discuss the role of culture in global experiences. Specifically, the importance of ensuring students and companies are prepared to manage cultural differences both for the success of the individual experience, but also in preparation for success in increasingly global workplaces.
