“You want people to go where they can’t see” Sometimes when people work in a new cultural context they don’t know where to look and focus. Often people complain but don’t go below the surface. This was an observation from Marie Tseng in the first session of the #SIETARSEA conference on How DEIB works in Asia. When the SEITAR SEA team was debating on the themes for the conference, we strongly felt the need to shape and sharpen the narrative on DEI in Asia - that really was the driver for this conference. And speaking of diverse, we didn’t have to look too far! The 6 core committee members: Joyce Jenkins, Marie-Therese Claes, Judit Vegh Grégory RASTELLO, Seiji Nakano and Aarti Kelshikar are incredibly diverse in terms of backgrounds and experiences. And so were the participants- as illustrated by Diversity Atlas, the participants came from 19 countries of birth, 29 ancestral groups, 40 languages and dialects spoken. Anna Zelno thank you for sharing this and for your incredible support in coming all the way from Barcelona! It was interesting to hear from Marie Tseng and Dr.Asma Abdullah as they shared their journeys and the Cultural Impact Scan to develop inter-cultural sensitivity. They took us through some of the dimensions that they felt were more relevant in an Asian context. All that was missing in this session wonderfully moderated by Joyce Jenkins was the cup of tea or Teh Tarik! We enjoyed how Marie-Therese Claes traced the history of DEI in the US. She took us on the journey from the legal case to the business case and finally the moral case and doing the right thing. It was something to think about as we heard how diversity in the US was largely about women and less about race. Roberto Vale highlighted how a lot of research has been done on trust but not enough on trustworthiness. He shared his findings across Asia as he studies the correlation between investing in building trust and increased cultural intelligence. Dr. Catherine Wu and Anna Ong shared how we could craft stories to sharpen our messages. An interactive session that culminated in Kharolin Hilda Amazona sharing her personal story of how she courageously followed her dream. These are just a few snippets of some sessions on Day 1. We all learnt something new whether it was a new concept or an interesting angle on an existing concept. Please continue to watch this space for more snippets that will provide some flavor of the eclectic mix of content and speakers at the conference. Group picture credit: Christophe Desmarais
