The Working with Us podcast is by global business strategist Paul Arnesen. It was created to teach and educate professionals, businesses, and others about working with people from different nationalities.
As the world has become ever more globalised in the last decades, and the previous few years with the rise in remote work, the knowledge and understanding of how to work more efficiently in global teams are more critical than ever.
Established companies need to re-educate themselves as they welcome a new generation with a global mindset, and there are new start-up companies with global dominance as their goal. An often forgotten aspect of international expansion is knowledge and experience working with someone different from their work culture.
By listening to the Working With Us podcast interviews, we hope to give you an easy and digestible way of learning about other cultures' work habits and cultural quirks.
In addition, we hope you use it for your knowledge and to educate your global teams.
Have a great listen!
