Leading Across Cultures

Join us for an ELP Leadership Dialogue with Fons Trompenaars, one of the most influential thinkers on cultural dilemmas in business. His book Riding the Waves of Culture is an acclaimed classic, and for over thirty years he has helped Fortune 500 leaders navigate the tensions of global leadership. In this session, Fons will explore how cultural differences show up in boardrooms, negotiations, and teams, and how leaders can turn those differences into a source of strength rather than friction. The plenary interview will be followed by moderated roundtable dialogues where you reflect with peers on your own cross-cultural dilemmas. This is a session for leaders who operate across borders, functions, or generations and know that understanding culture is no longer optional.
