Title: Research and Discussion on The Intercultural Profession: A snapshot of current professionals, practices, and challenges in the field. Conference call with Kate Berardo

Topic: In this session, we’ll share results from a 2007 study that provides a snapshot of the intercultural profession today. It highlights who interculturalists are, where we are doing our work, what we earn, what tools and approaches we are using, and the top issues facing the field today. Highlighting the activities and opinions of over 200 interculturalists worldwide, the study covers both core activities and curiosities such as how many books the average interculturalist reads each year and how much time trainers typically spend preparing for programs. Findings will be shared and discussed and comparisons will be drawn from 2004, when the first edition of this study was conducted.

Kate Berardo, founder of Culturosity.com and co-author of Putting Diversity to Work, has worked as a cross-cultural consultant in a dozen countries with thirty-five nationalities. Media worldwide has featured her work, including CNN’s Business Traveller and the Gulf News. She currently heads SIETAR Europa’s Awards Committee.
