The video fades into Sikarin introducing a scene in English; her full name and title as "Sikarin Laonitisart, Managing Director – Talent & Organization and Thailand IWD Champion 2024" appear on the screen, "Hello. I'm Riko, a Talent and Organization Lead at Accenture Thailand." following by her introduction in Thai. The video continues with a question on the screen: "What do you love about working at Accenture?" Sikarin answered in Thai, which was translated to English subtitles in the video as "What I truly enjoy most is the job itself. Accenture Thailand empowers employees to tackle diverse tasks and deliver solutions for our clients using new technology. This is why my tenure here has been so fulfilling. I continually expand my knowledge in this dynamic environment." The last question on screen is, "What does 'Be without limits' mean to you as a female?" Sikarin answered in Thai, which was translated to English subtitles in the video as "My 'Be Without Limit' is that, despite having no tech-related background, I was given the opportunity to be a part of Accenture and thrive as a leader in the tech field. Secondly, as a woman, I shoulder various roles. I am a leader, a daughter taking care of my mother, and a contributor sharing my work experiences with audiences, students, and communities. So, I want to express my support for every woman. We have limitless potential. We can handle multiple responsibilities at the same time." After her wrap-up, the video fades into a white background with the Accenture logo at the center of the screen.

A delightful scene in Japan. I saw this picture stating something like the staff working here are foreigners, so customers are requested to speak a bit slowly and consider that foreigners work here while ordering food. It's not only an excellent sign for foreigners to integrate into the workforce of Japan but also a sign of how Japan is evolving and becoming more open. I saw a similar thing for Accenture Japan. They were hiring international students with little to no Japanese proficiency. We hear companies being innovative and risk takers; Accenture showed it hands-on. Investing in international students and taking students with little Japanese proficiency (for their skills) is commendable. By this, they are hiring great talent and students who would give their heart to the company! Why? When most companies in Japan overlooked hiring students for their Japanese proficiency, Accenture chose to believe in us. Accenture decided to take the risk. So, the international student community will always be grateful to Accenture for leading innovation and upholding its value of the best people and one global network. #Japan #WorkforceDiversity #Globalization #Innovation #WorkplaceCulture #ForeignWorkers #InternationalStudents #Accenture #EmploymentTrends #CareerOpportunities #LanguageBarrier #Integration #CorporateCulture #HiringStrategies #TalentAcquisition #SkillsDevelopment #DiversityandInclusion #GlobalWorkforce #CrossCulturalCommunication #ProfessionalDevelopment #FutureOfWork #EmployerBranding #CareerDevelopment #JobOpportunities #CorporateInnovation #WorkforceDevelopment #GlobalTalent #EmployerValueProposition #ProfessionalNetworking #JobSearch #CareerGrowth #HRStrategies #EmployeeEngagement #DiverseWorkforce #LanguageProficiency #WorkplaceDynamics #GlobalBusiness #Recruitment #CulturalAwareness #TalentRetention #DiversityInitiatives #HiringProcesses #EmployeeExperience #WorkplaceInclusion #InternationalRecruitment #TalentManagement #JobMarket #LinkedInNetworking #CorporateLeadership #Accenture #AccentureJapan #AccentureCareers #AccentureCulture #AccentureOpportunities #AccentureInnovation #AccentureWorkplace #AccentureProfessional #AccentureTalent #AccentureGlobal #AccentureDevelopment #AccentureEmployment #AccentureTeam #AccentureLeadership #AccentureConsulting #AccentureLife #AccentureExperience #AccentureSkills #AccentureDiversity #AccentureNetwork

The celebration of cultural diversity within Malaysia extends beyond festive occasions, permeating workplaces and society at large. 😉 With a blend of backgrounds, Malaysians foster social cohesion, evident even in professional settings. 📝 The PwC Global Culture Survey 2021 underscores the uniqueness of Malaysia's workforce culture, with nearly 63% of participants acknowledging their organization's distinctive traits compared to competitors.📈 👭 🧑🤝🧑 However, around 86% believe their organizational culture needs further evolution over the next few years to enhance talent retention, efficiency, and motivation. Embracing diversity not only cultivates unity but also offers strategic advantages. 👀 Diverse teams bring varied perspectives and innovation to the table. Understanding diverse customer preferences and tailoring strategies accordingly strengthens relationships and loyalty in the global and Malaysian markets. 🤝 Collaborations across cultures stimulate creativity, enhancing problem-solving and innovation. This becomes particularly valuable when expanding business abroad, as it fosters cross-cultural understanding and local market insights. #Diversity #People #HumanResource

But it's also the greatest learning experience of my life. 🎓 Now, work and more precisely, the workplace has been my lifeline. My social hub. My Vietnamese 101 class. 🏢👥 I learned new words, customs, and a whole new work culture. It supported me in ways I can't even begin to express. Without it, I'd probably be back home, tail between my legs. 🏃♂️💨 All of this to say, when the going gets tough, the workplace can be a lifesaver. It taught me local norms, shaped my behaviors, and most importantly, gave me friends. 🤝 It opened my eyes to the power it holds in shaping positive habits, even outside of work. That's why I'm a firm believer in the role the workplace has to play into supporting positive behaviour change. Ant that's why we work tirelessly with Mai Trinh to get more organisations to empower office workers to reuse. 🔄 Because we know that if just a few people adopt a behavior, like a post-lunch nap, others around them will follow, and soon offices are turned into nap rooms. That's the magic of the workplace community. ✨ #communityforpositivechange #workplaceculture #Vietnam #Change

🔊An Extremely satisfying experience- conducting a 2-day Japanese culture workshop for a Fortune 500 Global Giant.  🗾 Accenture it is. (cant post company logo or training pictures due to some legal-compliance restrictions). 🎎Key things taught: ⛩ Foundation: History and core cultural elements (socio-business) ⛩Behavioral features: Key business processes/philosophies/mechanisms ⛩Actions: Summary of behaviors( guidelines & etiquettes) 💎How well did it go: (on a lighter note) 😀 As one of the key stakeholders said: " Not letting a room full of 40 people, doze off even for once, during post lunch sessions is a commendable job".. 😉 If you want to know more on #japaneseculture, please reach out to Your Coach AG 📧 #corporatecoaching #japaneseculture (image credit- public sources from web)

Luxoft Ukraine continues to drive cultural awareness workshops and this time together with Kostiantyn Riznyk we co-hosted event dedicated to the US and Mexico specifics compared to Ukrainian culture. Both Kostya and I have experience running teams in all three countries, and we acknowledge the differences in legislation, business practices, and culture across each. However, one area where the US, Mexico, and Ukraine are completely distinct is in their approaches to providing feedback. In my experience, this difference often leads to misunderstandings, as the feedback styles of these cultures can be easily confused with one another. This underscores the importance of cultural awareness in our increasingly interconnected world.
