Christian, a seasoned professional originally from Guadalajara, Mexico, shares his journey of transitioning from a leadership role in Latin America to managing multicultural teams in Poland, marking his fifth year in Europe.This episode dives deep into the nuances of cultural differences between the LATAM and European regions, exploring how these variations shape communication styles, management approaches, and organizational structures. From initial cultural shocks—like Poland's dark winter days—to adapting leadership styles for diverse teams, Christian's experiences highlight the challenges and rewards of working in a global environment.Discover insights into recruitment and onboarding practices, differences in employee loyalty, and the significance of situational leadership when managing teams with diverse cultural backgrounds.
