Riding the Waves of Culture — Understanding Cultural Diversity for the Marketplace and Missions

Duration: 1-2 days

Based on the material by Fons Trompenaars and Charles Hampden-Turner, Riding the Waves of Culture dispels the idea that there is only one way to manage and encourages us to understand our own ethnic or organizational culture before managing or working with other national cultures.

You will learn Seven Dimensions of Culture and how different cultures use these dimensions in relationships, time and environment. During this seminar, you will explore select cultures from our database of over 50 countries. An optional personal survey is also available to measure your Seven Dimensions of Culture.

Follow practical steps to create transcultural competence and reconcile cultural differences through communication, empathy, and creativity. This seminar is suitable for missions programmes and leaders who minister cross-culturally.

Business By The Book

Duration: 1 day

Your work is a holy calling and ministry. God is marshalling His people in the workplace as never before. In your marketplace role, you are strategically placed to fulfill His purposes in this nation, by the way you conduct your business and live out your life in the day-to-day workplace environment.

The model of marketplace service is Jesus Himself who spent more than fifty percent of his life as a carpenter. Of 132 public appearances, 122 were in the workplace. Of 52 parables Jesus told, 45 had a workplace context and of 40 God-encounters in the book of Acts, 39 were in the workplace.

Business by the Book is designed by Crown Ministries to provide solid teaching and to impact the heart, helping to facilitate the understanding and outworking of ministry and the encountering of God in the marketplace.
