This workshop focuses on enhancing teacher leadership through an understanding of intercultural conflict resolution. Participants will explore their own conflict resolution styles and the cultural differences that influence professional interactions. Through activities such as role play and discussions, we will analyze case studies, particularly involving diverse cultural perspectives in conflict scenarios. Attendees will become familiar with useful tools and practices that promote effective communication, collaboration, and trust-building across various cultural contexts in educational environments.
