Why Should Employers Invest In Intercultural Competence?
Collaboration, creativity, curiosity and respect are essential in today’s business world. Companies know that a solid equity, diversity and inclusion strategy is not only essential for competitive advantage and attracting and retaining diverse talent — it drives the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) agenda of the organisation.
Employers also have a duty of care to their employees under equality law and health and safety legislation – which includes assessing and considering the specific requirements of employees from diverse cultural backgrounds.

We had an amazing experience receiving GORM’s intercultural Competence Training! As the leader of a large volunteer based organisation, this training has equipped us better for the welcome diversity of backgrounds and perspectives we wish to foster! A digestible and superbly delivered application of what cultural differences can mean in any workplace! Highly recommended!
PsyCare Ireland
A very informative workshop delivered with care, passion and knowledge. I appreciated the real life examples related to our Festival and across various sectors of our Festival. I left the workshop feeling empowered and more informed on topics that are close to my heart.
Galway International Arts Festival
The experience of dealing with the team from GORM has been amazing from the very start. I felt like everything I discussed when I first met Beatriz was followed through by Leticia. It was thought provoking but also put up in an uncomfortable space as a team, something we need to get better at. I hope to have GORM back to ULSL again.
University of Limerick
Bea was an amazing facilitator who provided us with complex ideas in an understandable and approachable format.
Maynooth University
Beatriz was great and really engaging with the participants. It was very immersive and they learnt a lot.

Participating in the ‘Introduction to Intercultural Competence’ training was a transformative experience. The program provided essential tools for navigating cultural nuances, from the ‘Iceberg Model’ to understanding high- and low-context communication. I particularly valued the collaborative group work and visualisations, which made complex theories tangible. This training is a must for any art professional looking to work ethically and effectively in a global context.
