Previous studies\/experience: International business and management studies & working in marketing field
\nCurrent career plan: Work in intercultural diversity management<\/p>\n

It\u2019s very enriching and fun to be part of such a truly international group; I can expand on my previous experiences and learn from everyone\u2019s diverse backgrounds. We are gaining valuable in depth knowledge and practical skills to work in intercultural management and related fields \u2013 for example through leading our own intercultural workshops, project work or debating complex issues about managing diversity. I\u2019m looking forward to my exchange to Helsinki and the practical semester in the 2nd year.<\/p>\n

Update from October 2019:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Current Position: Customer Support Specialist in the financial sector<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0My job requires excellent communication and conflict resolution skills, which ICM helped me build through theory and practice. Understanding the (business) culture of both my home country and my new home helps me navigate not just the day to day (work) life. I can anticipate intercultural issues and facilitate understanding and solutions between the company and its clients as well as in my own private life.\u00a0\u00bb<\/span><\/p>\n

Future career plans: Work in intercultural field as a mediator, trainer or project manager<\/p>\n

I enrolled in this course in 2016 and belong to the second generation of ICM students. This master\u2019s has given me the opportunity to be confronted daily with perspectives that are different from mine, therefore enriching my vision of the world. This process has been possible thanks to both my fellow ICM students and the wide array of subjects that is presented in this course. Having a background mainly in languages and linguistics, I feel that I have acquired not only knowledge but more importantly skills both in the interculturality and management fields. This master\u2019s program is adapted to people who are open-minded, curious and flexible and who already have experience in working in an international team and\/or living abroad. ICM can be challenging at times, but for me it was worth it.<\/p>\n

Update from November 2019:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Current Position: HR Project Manager<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0I am currently working as a project manager in Human Resources in Philips. The program trained me to navigate the diversity and challenges of a big corporate environment and equipped me with a flexible can-do mentality and very good communication skills.\u00a0\u00bb<\/span><\/p>\n

Previous studies: Bachelor\u2019s in Sociology (Universit\u00e9 de Nantes, France) and Bachelor\u2019s (2nd year) in English Literature (St Xavier\u2019s College, Nepal). I\u2019ve been doing my studies in France since 2010.<\/p>\n

After acquiring different work experiences and also travel experiences, I\u2019ve decided to choose this master\u2019s in intercultural management which suits my career plan. This course provides a good opportunity for everyone who is interested in working abroad with people from different cultures in the management field (HR\/project management).<\/p>\n

Something which I\u2019ve found very interesting in this master\u2019s is that you do not only get to study and work with students from various countries with professional work experiences but it also allows you to understand the importance of having knowledge about the presence of cultures in the professional domain and how they are handled. It\u2019s more than just about cultures as you\u2019ll see, this master\u2019s course is well designed to guide you to your career path.
\nLooking forward to the exchange program in Tokyo in the 3rd semester.<\/p>\n

\"\"I\u2019m\u00a0a first-year ICM student. I\u2019m 28 years old and I come from Belgrade, Serbia. I earned my BAs in English Language and Literature (University of Belgrade) and Engineering Management (Singidunum University in Belgrade). I previously worked\u00a0in Emirates Airline, the UAE, for 3 years, and that\u2019s where\u00a0my desire to study Interculaturality\u00a0stems from. I have also worked\u00a0in the hospitality sector, marketing & sales, and I\u2019ve\u00a0been teaching English to different second language learners for the past 2 years. I\u2019m interested in how important a strong\u00a0corporate culture is when dealing with a multicultural working environment and how to handle it.\u00a0With this master\u2019s program, I aim to broaden my\u00a0knowledge\u00a0and gain new insights in order to be able to successfully\u00a0manage and inspire\u00a0thriving\u00a0intercultural environments.<\/p>\n

What I think of ICM: I would describe it as a challenging and rewarding experience. As intercultural communication teaches us, we all have different perceptions of what education should be like and what I like about ICM is that it allows you\u00a0plenty of\u00a0liberty to further research into your area of interest, to learn to study and live \u2018French way\u2019 and to\u00a0excel in group work and different fields related to the subject.<\/p>\n

Update from October 2019:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Current Position: Intercultural Trainer Recruiter<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0I was scouted on LinkedIn thanks to the field of my Master\u2019s, so the degree to which it helped my current work position is great. In my current job, the knowledge acquired during my Master\u2019s allows me to assess candidate\u2019s suitability and knowledge to deliver this type of training, as well as to find and develop the best talent in a given location.<\/span>\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong>I am originally from Moscow, however, for the last three years I have lived abroad. I participated in my first exchange program in 2010 when I went to Paris for 1 semester, where I studied management and political sciences. I graduated from the Moscow State University in 2012 with a master\u2019s in management, and worked for 2 years as a PR manager with international and local clients. At the same time, I was interested in languages, so I organised several conversation clubs. My interest in international exchange increased over time, and I moved to Beijing where I taught English and organised English-speaking events. I completed my TEFL certification, and moved the following year to continue teaching in Shanghai, while also taking on responsibilities within the company to train new foreign employees. This inspired me to continue my education, and enroll in my current studies. The ICM program helps me to look at management from an EU perspective, moreover it encourages me to consider things in a global way. I am working to expand my intercultural and management competencies, and broaden my knowledge about different cultures every day.<\/p>\n

Plans for the future: I am interested in continuing to work with expats in an international team on a new professional level.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
