Every team has three layers of culture. Most leaders manage one and ignore the others. The result is strained relationships, missed signals, conflict mistaken for performance problems, and strategy that fails in execution.
In this keynote, Cam draws on two decades of cross-cultural leadership and her research to give leaders a framework for reading the layers of culture they need to lead across: their own, their organization's, and their teammates'.
⸺ ATTENDEES LEAVE WITH
What this keynote
delivers
A practical model for cultural self-awareness, including the biases leaders carry into every meeting without realizing it and the cost of leaving them unexamined
A method for reading organizational culture as it actually is, not as the values poster claims it is, including the specific signals that reveal the gap
A framework for understanding the cultures of teammates at depth, moving past surface-level differences to the patterns that actually predict how people work, decide, and respond to leadership
Concrete questions leaders can ask in their next one-on-one to start operating with cultural intelligence immediately, before any larger initiative is required
⸺ IDEAL AUDIENCE
Who this keynote is for
Senior leaders, executives, and HR and people-ops leadership in organizations with multinational teams, multi-site operations, post-merger workforces, or any environment where leaders are managing people whose work cultures differ from their own.
Particularly suited for leadership offsites, executive education programs, global HR summits, and association events where the audience is responsible for leading across difference, not just acknowledging it.
