E059_Bridging Cultures for Safety (Intercultural Intelligence): The Three Colours of Worldview

In Conversation with The Safety Collaborators

Welcome to 2024 🎉
After a well-deserved break, we're back and feeling refreshed, ready to dive into the fascinating world of intercultural intelligence and safety. We've got some exciting things in store for you this year, so stay tuned for some surprises!
In today's episode, we look at recent news events, particularly airline incidents, and how they shed light on the profound impact of cultural behaviours on safety.
From the remarkable orderliness displayed by Japanese passengers during a crisis to the contrasting experiences in other cultures, we explore how cultural perceptions and behaviours play a crucial role in safety outcomes.
We also discuss a significant news story involving a post office scandal in the UK, highlighting how cultural norms and behaviours can influence decision-making, accountability, and justice within different contexts.
Our conversation turns to individual personalities and cultural worldviews, emphasising the importance of understanding and embracing diversity in fostering a culture of care.
We introduce the Three Colours of World View framework, a powerful tool for navigating intercultural communication and enhancing intercultural agility.
Join us as we reflect on these real-life incidents, cultural nuances, and the 3 core drivers of culture:
1️⃣ Honour <> Shame
2️⃣ Innocence <> Guilt
3️⃣ Power <> Fear
We'll explore how understanding these drivers empowers us to make informed choices and navigate diverse cultural contexts effectively.
Take advantage of this thought-provoking episode that sets the stage for a series on Bridging Cultures for Safety and nurturing a Culture of Care.
Stay engaged with us, share your thoughts, and join the conversation! Remember to tune in next week for more insights into the 12 Dimensions of Culture and how to bring them into your world.
