“Having a diverse team in the military and in all organizations is critical for decision-making in complex and uncertain situations. To foster trust within a diverse team, leaders need cultural agility to help them remove their perceptual blinders. Build Your Cultural Agility is a book that will help leaders gain this critical leadership competency.” ― General David Goldfein (USAF Retired), 21st Chief of Staff of the U.S. Air Force
“As a global HR executive, I find Dr. Caligiuri’s book to be timely and pertinent. The world is continuing to rapidly evolve, and while doing business across borders has become more commonplace, it has also become more complex. Understanding your own unique cultural lens and adapting your approach to ensure inclusion and respect for others is key to success in any language. The current environment with the global pandemic has only made this book more important. While travel and physical cues used to serve as a key guidepost, providing more immediate feedback for global leaders, we are now faced with a largely virtual environment. Dr Caligiuri’s pragmatic guidance on all nine competencies comprising cultural agility, as well as her focus on developing trust, continuous learning, thoughtful communications and strong relationships are critical for all global leaders to embrace to maximize their impact.” ― Nicolette Sherman, Chief Human Resources Officer, Oyster Point Pharma, Inc.

It is no secret that the greatest success comes when we focus on inclusive and diverse teams!” ― LaShell Tinder, Executive Board Member, Families in Global Transition
