Culture need not be spooky: The Skeletons in the Closet — Fear, Silence, and Cultural Taboos
October 28 at 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Every global team has a few skeletons in the closet. Unspoken assumptions. Awkward silences. “We thought they meant yes.” These moments are not spooky. They are predictable. And expensive.
On Tuesday, October 28 in Atlanta, GA, The Culture Mastery is hosting a fast-moving, hands-on workshop:
What you will walk away with:
- Identify your cultural values and how they play out in meetings, emails, and decisions
- Compare U.S. norms with key partners in Germany, Mexico, India, or Nigeria
- See how culture impacts every area of business from timelines to risk to hierarchy
- A set of tips and strategies you can apply the next day for smoother collaboration and sustainable growth across borders
What this session will help you avoid:
- Real-life costly culture clashes that blow up projects
- Ignoring the gap between intention and interpretation
- False similarity assumptions that derail trust
- The painful embarrassment of miscommunication in front of clients and leadership
Who should attend:
Leaders in international roles, sales and sourcing, HR and L&D, project managers, and anyone who has to get results with people who do not think or decide like you.
Why now:
October is a good time to de-risk Q4 interactions and plan 2026. One day with your team can save months of “lost in translation.”
