From conflicts to resolutions: DvT within and beyond Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a dynamic blend where the East meets West, however, the two cultures are still accommodating one another. Some long-standing Asian beliefs and values clash with DvT’s.

This presentation aims at bRaiNwaSHing participants with Hong Kong culture so you know how to work with TRUE Hong Kongers, and take it as an experience to work with a different culture. Through visiting a non-repeating perFectiSSSh culture, participants can also reflect how fuckED uP your own has been and how it is embedded in your blood and flesh, play and leadership.
