"Cultures transcend national borders and bias the way we understand the subjective reality of our existence. Failure to understand, appreciate, and navigate cultural differences is a failure to understanding the symbiotic nature of how we communicate ideas, manage ourselves and businesses, and align ourselves with the physical, psychological, and spiritual needs of our humanity."
