Working as a board director in international environments is an exciting opportunity but also poses challenges. The challenges span keeping updated with the markets and business, as well as geo-political and regulation challenges. In addition it also includes challenges in boardroom interactions in areas as communication style, accents and fluency, attitudes to hierarchy and norms for decision making.

In this webinar we will understand more about

• Navigating through cultural differences in international Boards

• Independent directors putting the culture map to work
• Cross cultural aspects in the Board room
