“The road is long, supplies are costly, seasons are short, fortune is fickle.” Who hasn't seen similar constraints in projects—cost and timing is driving these projects to consider working with parties outside their national boundaries with cultures that differ from theirs. This session will describe the results of two years of research to identify success factors for these complex transnational projects and how this research can be applied to a variety of projects.
At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
- Recognize the proper role culture plays in transnational projects and how to choose participants correctly.
- Discuss the role that trust, empathy and connectedness play in a collaborative environment and how to best utilize those traits.
