Working in the Matrix−

Operate with multiple bosses, shared accountability, and blurred authority. Learn through an unfolding case study to clarify roles and decisions, influence without formal power, and resolve conflict without damage.

Impact: faster decisions, fewer bottlenecks, less politics.

Cross-Cultural & Cross-Functional Collaboration+

Join the story of a global team as it faces challenges and learns to work together across sites and functions. Explore power and hierarchy, direct vs indirect communication, and how different functions see risk and promises.

Impact: fewer misunderstandings and delays; stronger cross-site relationships.

Meta Skills for Global Work+

The ‘beneath the surface’ competencies that make other skills work. Develop skills such as awareness, systems thinking, and leading in times of change and uncertainty.

Impact: calmer leaders, sharper judgment, deeper trust.
