A coaching client was given the Cross-Cultural Kaleidoscope as exercise. While at first she was could not identify with the model, the process of reflection allowed her to draw deeper insights about herself as a person.

A Journey of Transformation

An Italian woman who had moved to Paris, France used the Cross-Cultural Kaleidoscope to process her feelings about the move, her work, and her life.

This work enabled her to accept what she was moving away from and what she was moving towards in a process of personal transformation.

"Face" Across Contexts

My client from China, a CSO, was asked to be more assertive in board meetings. In his home region, "face" is a major concept. Speaking up could mean losing face – or causing his bosses to lose face - if he was wrong.

This case illuminates how deeply held values and beliefs can become a barrier to adaptation in a new context. While the organisation also has a responsibility to understand the impact of their norms on their personnel.
