CLOSING THE GAP:
REALISING POTENTIAL

A one-day intensive programme for Educators
working with International Medical Graduates

VALUING DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION BRINGS RECIPROCAL BENEFITS 

We all want to be ‘seen’ –  appreciated for the people we are and the skills, personal qualities, and strengths we possess; a nurturing and inclusive environment offers everyone opportunities to be the best that they can be. Gaining insider knowledge about how a culture works can save time and stress and provide a short-cut to settling into the new culture. Finding out more about differences in ways of working, handling processes, learning, problem-solving, communication etc. also offers opportunities for making the most of different approaches and perspectives, for the benefit of the whole team.

This interactive programme demonstrates how cultural intelligence (CQ) can provide a neutral language with which to describe cultural difference and offers suggestions for avoiding communications ‘noise’ from unacknowledged cultural difference.

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the end of the programme, you will have gained practical tools and strategies to support your doctors in postgraduate training who have qualified abroad, so that you can help them achieve success in their career and enable them to make their full contribution to the team. (You may also have discovered some surprises about your own cultural assumptions and perspectives!).
