Welcome to this episode, the first in a three-part series on improving your safety culture through intercultural intelligence.
We are living and working in an interculturally complex world. Often challenges arise as we make assumptions that we all work, make decisions, communicate, share information and comply with a common set of standards and norms. That is the aim, but we are dealing with human beings, and we are like the colours of the rainbow, multifaceted and complex.
Today, we will begin the series by discussing some questions from the list of Culture Acquisition Questions; there are 152 we shall only cover dozen or so during this and the subsequent two episodes. These questions help us understand our differences and consider how to work together for safer operations. The Culture Acquisition questions are from a body of work on Intercultural Intelligence which we bring into our safety culture consultancy work and help people to think differently about safety.
The questions that we are exploring in this episode are
- What is the cultural norm for the relationship between a leader, manager, supervisor and the people reporting to them?
- How do people generally respond to outsiders trying to integrate into the new group?
- What things or conditions provide the people with a feeling of security?
- Do people depend on themselves or the group for their directions and choices in day-to-day life?
Underpinning much of today's conversation is Psychological Safety - listen out for it.
Our aim is that these questions and our conversations will trigger some thoughts and ideas in you. It's about taking a step back and stepping into somebody else's shoes just for a moment and saying, what are our differences? And how can those differences make us more the same?
Over to you
How do you make your teams feel included? How do you make your people feel they can speak up and stop the job when they have their gut feeling or that inkling, or they just know something isn't right without being ostracised by the bigger group.
