In our latest episode of The Leadership Launchpad, I speak with Kris Roppelt, a globally recognized expert in intercultural communication and soft skills. With experience living and working across multiple countries, Kris brings a unique perspective on navigating an increasingly globalized workforce.

Tune in as we discuss the metaphor of lenses to understand different cultural viewpoints, the importance of embracing contextual diversity, and the need for managers to build trust, set goals, and give feedback while understanding cultural differences. Kris shares captivating stories from her time as an exchange student in South Korea and provides practical examples of cultural nuances in professional settings.
