Global Mindset – An Exploration
Speaker: Amita Verma, Executive Director, Research Management and Accreditation, Senior Fellow, College of Business & Management
Abstract
Having a Global Mindset is an essential trait for anyone who wishes to an engaged citizen, and a successful and effective contributor and leader in the interconnected world that we live in. While we might have an intuitive understanding of what the term “global mindset” means, many of us may not have explored it to understand that competencies, attitudes, and traits that make a up a global mindset and how a global mindset manifests in our actions and thoughts. In this session, I will use the Global Mindset Framework and Inventory developed by the Thunderbird School of Global Management to guide our discussion of a global mindset. We will explore what it means, how to build a global mindset for ourselves as individuals and foster it in others in our role as educators. This will be an interactive session.
