Develop Professionally Editors Contributors Index Review "This book brings creativity and innovativeness to training tools, models, and activities. I fully agree with the authors that it is amazing that this important field of endeavor has made so little progress in the last 30 years. The cry for intercultural competence becomes louder at a time when we dont have to travel to find an increasingly diverse population, and thus training is needed now more than ever."Fons Trompenaars, founder of Trompenaars Hampden-Turner, a major multinational consulting firm with offices in The Netherlands, Japan, Singapore, and US"Building Cultural Competence makes a valuable contribution to intercultural trainers by presenting 50+ innovative activities designed specifically for the development of intercultural competence and framing the use of these activities in terms of intercultural facilitation and intercultural development."R. Michael Paige, author of Education for the Intercultural Experience and Professor of International and Intercultural EducationUniversity of Minnesota"A new book of training activities is always welcome, but this volume offers something more: a thoughtful, careful analysis of how to design and execute relevant cultural training. You get the toolkit, in short, as well as guidance from some of the master builders."Craig Sorti, author, trainer and consultant in intercultural communications Review Quote "This book brings creativity and innovativeness to training tools, models, and activities.
