The Summer Institute for Intercultural Communication offers a series of free evening programs at Reed College in Portland, Oregon July 11-27, 2007 . I will be presenting one of the programs with Peggy Pusch on Monday July 23 at 7:00 PM in Elliot 314.
Developing Culturally Competent Professional Associations
What makes culturally effective professional associations? How can interculturalists help the professional associations we belong to operate in more culturally sensitive ways? How can we create effective leadership teams in these associations? In this experiential session we will use VisualsSpeak to explore how leaders on boards of professional organizations can discover their collective values and determine how to reach goals of inclusiveness and intercultural competence. A process used with two leadership teams and one multicultural group focused on intercultural competence will be demonstrated and results from these sessions discussed.
