Why are intercultural skills and their development still not considered as gamechangers in the professional world?
Original language description
Intercultural competences are gaining an increased importance in today’s business environment as international, highly qualified workers close the shortage of skilled workers. It is not only necessary to train one’s employees accordingly to develop a competitive advantage on the global market, but also ever-changing technology and the digital transformation require new ways of working. This paper is focusing on the importance of intercultural competence as such, as well as the connectivity between intercultural competences and trainings and the impact in real business environments. Additionally, it emphasizes the opportunities organizations could gain when investing more in intercultural competences of their employees. The research is based on literature analysis and later in-depth interviews will be conducted with companies, schools and universities in Upper Austria and in Vysočina in the Czech Republic.
