As workplaces, colleges, and communities grow more diverse, many leaders struggle to create spaces where individuals feel safe sharing differing perspectives. This challenge requires a new kind of leadership—rooted in empathy, strategic inclusion, and the ability to navigate polarizing conversations to achieve innovative, win-win outcomes.

At Public Squared, we help senior executives develop these crucial skills through our Cultural Translation Training. This program equips leaders with practical tools to manage high-conflict situations, foster authentic dialogue, and unlock the potential of diverse perspectives, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth and collaboration.

Join us in creating a workplace culture where inclusion drives innovation, trust, and strategic advantage.

This program goes beyond lecture format and walks participants through a hands-on experience designed to help mitigate polarizing, high-conflict challenges in the workplace.

The program offers a hands-on, 7-step framework that helps leaders gain greater self-awareness, clarify their values, and build bridges with those they disagree with—using the language of shared values. Divided into three key sections—ME, THEM, and US—the training starts with deepening self-awareness of personal worldviews, moves into understanding and engaging with differing perspectives, and concludes with building bridges through a Cultural Translation Statement.

This program is built on case studies spanning over thirty years and has been implemented across high-level government settings, including the U.S. Navy, the Senior Leader Program for federal employees, and even on an international stage with the Israeli Constituent Assembly. Most recently, it was featured at the Society of Human Resource Managers’ annual INCLUSION Conference, highlighting its profound impact on fostering inclusive leadership.

Join us and become a catalyst for change. This is more than just training—it’s a movement to create leaders who embody empathy, champion diversity, and lead the revolution of the heart in today’s world.
