This class is for City of Baltimore managers/supervisors only.
Cultural competence begins with the recognition that we are all born, raised and living in social, educational and organizational cultures. These cultures shape our assumptions, beliefs, values and behaviors. When we interact with others, the similarities and differences between our cultural expectations often make the interaction both more interesting, and more challenging.
A person who is culturally competent can communicate sensitively and effectively with people who have different languages, cultures, religions, genders, ethnicities, disabilities, ages and sexualities. The goal of this workshop is for participants to develop cultural competence, resulting in their ability to understand, communicate with, and effectively interact with all people. Develop awareness, increase knowledge, and build skills which will lead to cultural competence empowerment.
