March 22, 2023 @ 13:30 - 16:00 EDT

Speaker: Hector Garcia

Topic: Intergenerational Alliances to Counter Silo Mindset on Economic Growth vs Humanity, Nature, and Reason.

Time: Mar 22, 2023 13:30 Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Summary:  Humanity is experiencing great trauma and crises during the current phase of globalization.  Where and how are we looking for solutions? We keep focusing on areas where we have invested the most and are doing relatively but selectively well—the economy, technology and physical science, while we increasingly disregard the root causes of the confusing dilemma and the sources of possible solutions: our blind spots on the vital resources of human dignity and human agency, history and nature. (Garcia, 2017) (Haque, 2018).

We can address the inconsistencies in globalization, such as the Silo Mindset, irrational behavior, the appearance of a fragmented or non-existent reality, and desolation, if: we choose: a) to continue learning cooperatively and responsibly in the struggle for closer yet endless approximations to truth, b) to recover constructive and honest communication, and c) evolve towards greater maturity through paradigms, which can reveal cultural and natural interdependence as a priority on par with economic and technological interdependence.

Biography:  Born in Mexico and now a U.S. citizen, is President of Mex-US Global, LLC, consultants in intercultural communications and international strategic business alliances.  Hector has presented views on international relations and his Cultural Complementarity theory in articles published in Canada, Mexico and the U.S. as well as conferences in Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the U.S. and Switzerland. His book Clash or Complement of Cultures?: Peace & Productivity in the New Global Reality (find on Amazon) is intended to help address globalization’s unexpected inconsistencies and the need for greater cooperation within and among nations through synergies of cultural teamwork
