159. Colliding CQs

In the third episode of the Cultural Intelligence series, Julia explores what happens when different cultures come together. She dives into the tensions, misunderstandings, and moments of growth that emerge when people with different cultures interact and how that shapes their leading.  "Sometimes, when cultures collide, we feel it as a clash, but what if we saw it as an opportunity instead?" says Julia. Through real-life stories and thought-provoking insights, she unpacks why these clashes occur, how to navigate them with curiosity rather than frustration, and what leaders can do to turn cultural differences into strengths rather than obstacles. Listen to this episode to discover how embracing cultural collisions can deepen your understanding, strengthen your leading, and help you build more cohesive, high-performing teams. 

Om Podcasten

Every week, we produce a new episode that explores women and leadership from a different perspective. In a series of lively, wide-ranging discussions, we talk to women all over the world who are dealing with tough leadership challenges in their daily lives. We find out the barriers they face and how they are overcoming them; they share their experiences, insights and advice. (the series also informs and illustrates the expedition while it is underway and gives updates on the members’ progress.) Episodes come out every Wednesday and once a month, we do a live q&a.
