Cultural Differences in Asia with Dona Amelia
Born in a small village in Indonesia, I grew up in extreme poverty, a challenge that fuelled my resilience, ambition, and determination.
Today, I’ve transformed my life into a multi-faceted career as co-founder & head of member service of EGN Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia while also being a Speaker, Trainer, Coach, and Host.
Executive Global Network (EGN) and cultural differences in Asia.
Dona Amelia’s tips to become more culturally aware are:
- You need to be curious; when working with different people from different countries; the more you know the more you will understand. You don’t know what is going on in the others’s mind.
- Having empathy for the other person and situation that you’re in.
- Understanding the other person and other cultures.
