Confluence: Exploring Communication at the Boundary of Language & Culture: Recent Episodes
Barbara Boldt
Are you a business professional or entrepreneur who's native language isn't English? Confluence, hosted by executive communication skills coach Barbara Boldt, is a series of stimulating conversations that explore communication at the intersection of language and culture.
How do you navigate the cultural differences of your employees within the culture of your company? How do you communicate your executive brand? How can you use influence mapping to determine what people in your organization truly care about?
