Globalization of Departments – Embracing Opportunities, Tackling Challenges
When teams span countries and cultures, globalization can foster creativity, broaden access to talent, and enhance quality and competitiveness. At the same time, it introduces practical challenges – from time zone differences and communication barriers to shifts in team dynamics and leadership demands. Globalization is not a fixed state, but a continuous process that requires adaptability, clear structures, and cross-cultural understanding.
This session explores both the strategic potential and the day-to-day realities of working in global teams – and offers space to share experiences on how to navigate this ongoing journey effectively.
