Leading Through Global Differences | Leadership Growth Podcast
In today’s interconnected world, leaders must navigate cultural differences, language barriers, and diverse perspectives. How can leaders build trust, understanding, and collaboration across borders?
In this episode of The Leadership Growth Podcast, Daniel Stewart and Peter Stewart speak with Kerim Kfuri—author, host of The Supply and Demand Show, and President & CEO of The Atlas Network, LLC—about what he’s learned from a lifetime of working in multicultural and cross-border environments.
From growing up as the child of immigrants speaking multiple languages to leading a logistics organization with over 2,000 suppliers worldwide, Kerim shares what truly works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to leading through global differences.
What you’ll learn:
– How to use survey questions to set the stage for cross-cultural collaboration
– Why curiosity is essential in global leadership
