KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Identity and lived experiences are very important. Intersectionality is different in different countries. 
  • Some people use intersectionality to brand themselves and advance in DEI spaces. Intersectionality should be used for education
  • Use intersectionality to understand the interconnectedness of the world. Dig into the history of the country that shapes your identity. 
  • When someone says they don’t like a specific word, even if you don’t agree, respect it
  • Global leadership requires you to break down walls and challenge previous boundaries and thoughts... you must immerse and decenter yourself and learn things we don’t know.
  • You don’t have to travel to learn about other countries and become a global leader, you have to take the time to learn about global narratives.
  • Becoming a global leader takes time, questions, and conversations.
  • Global leaders are curious
  • Adapting business culture uses inside research, unbiased data and surveys...however, it’s limited... lived experience is needed. 
  • Global events help us to look at local events from another angle that maybe we haven’t thought about before.
