Ep 4 | ‘Fitting in’ to new cultures

The Coaching Academic | theory to practice

In this episode, I discuss a study that explores the process of fitting in or retooling to new cultures. In this episode I summarise the key findings which includes an exploration of the psychological conflict created when individuals are trying to adapt to working in new cultures and the techniques that can be employed to help reduce this conflict and translate how you can utilise the findings from this study into practice. The study I am discussing in this episode is Molinsky, A. L. (2013). The psychological processes of cultural retooling. Academy of Management Journal, 56(3), 683-710.
