Global Cultural Mindset (Part 1: Values)
For a seemingly long time, the work was becoming smaller as global travel became easier and more and more affordable. Then, a pandemic hit, and the world seemed to expand. Sometimes, the other side of the earth seems to be as far away as another planet. Then again, we are interacting and working with people from all over the world, often in a virtual setting.
In my work as a teacher and a life coach I have come to learn about the cultural challenges a global setting can provide for individuals. In a synthesis of my training as a sociologist, my experience as a teacher, and the many wonderful things I learned from people I have worked with, I have created a program.
The series is called “Developing a Global Cultural Mindset”. Part 1 is all about VALUES: Values answer the question:
“In a world where you could choose to have your life be about something,
what would you choose?”
(Wilson & Murrell, 2004, 135)
Why is it important to be aware of our values? – Values are our inner compass. Being aware of our values helps us navigate our life in the direction that we choose.
For a short time, the first self-exploratory exercise “Reflection on Values” is available for free.
