Listen "45. Intercultural Competence for Social Work Management"
Episode Synopsis
Intercultural competence of managers and employees represents a necessary "key qualification" in all industries. Also, social work professionals increasingly deal with members of different cultures, groups, and minorities. In this way, intercultural competence has become a requirement for anyone who wants to work in the social work profession. In this episode of Managing Around, I will give you a glimpse of how intercultural competences are relevant to social work management. I start with a brief description of what the term 'intercultural competence" can mean and will discuss later its impact on the field of social work management. Reference:Arnold, M. (2022).
