Hi! In this episode of Coaching with Confidence and Care, I’m talking about cultural sensitivity and cultural humility for coaches. Coaching across cultures is such an exciting opportunity, but let’s be real — it’s not always straightforward. How do we navigate differences in communication styles, build trust, and manage our own biases while doing our best work at that?
I’ll share stories from my years of intercultural coaching and coach training, with clients from over 45 countries, and break down what I’ve learned along the way. You’ll hear about handling cultural nuances, like how trust is built differently across cultures, or why “direct” feedback isn’t always a universal win. I’ll also offer practical tips — like using Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions to understand where clients are coming from and shaping a coaching approach that feels respectful and inclusive.
Whether you’re coaching globally, working with culturally diverse teams, or just curious about how cultural sensitivity and humility can enhance your practice, this episode brings you some insights and tools you can use right away.
