Presenting Scenario:
The worlds economic landscape is changing rapidly and becoming increasingly
global. We come face to face with a series of unprecedented political, ethical,economic and financial issues. Especially in the last five years, we see the
world ruled by much flux and uncertainty. The fall of the dotcoms; upheaval in
capital markets; globalisation and intensifying competition; a more volatile global
economy; the horrific Sep 11 2001 & its aftermath and the threat of terrorism,global warming & natural disasters are some of examples.
How successful the new generation is at exploiting emerging opportunities and
tackling their accompanying challenges depends crucially on how intelligently
it observes and interprets the dynamic world in which it operates.
Therefore harnessing the Global Thinker/Mindset is a centralrequirement for building such intelligence.

This seminar hopes to examine the concepts of the global mindset from a
psychological perspective.
The Psychology of Self Awareness is especially important because its absence is
the single most critical derailer for senior leaders. Global Thinkers must understand
how they are perceived in diverse contexts by many, very different people with
different assumptions and behavioral norms. To lead effectively, they need to
understand their own strengths and weaknesses, their emotions, and their impact on
others.
They also need a wider behavioral repertoire to call on contextually appropriate for a
range of situations. (e.g.. EQ, Communication skills, Inter/Intra personal relationship
skills etc.,)
Global Thinkers with a high level of Self Awareness are also characterized by expert
intuition, common sense, and learning agility. They can quickly tell whether a
situation is typical or atypical, and act.

The Social psychology gives the global thinker a systemic perspective and
broad understanding of cultural diversity, political, socio-economic conditions,
history and interrelations.
The Cognitive Psychology takes into consideration a high degree of cognitive
complexity and not just merely possessing High IQ. The Global Thinker can
simultaneously hold and apply several valid but competing and complementary
interpretations of a domain or situation. Meaning they are able to balance
contradiction, ambiguities and trade-offs, and manage paradox.
Other traits: open-minded, non-judgmental, inquisitive, highly motivated, curious,
what makes people different, tolerance for Ambiguity, build trust and relationships.
