Скачать или смотреть HR Missteps with Expats - and how to avoid them (Dominika Miernik)

What happens when cultural norms clash at work—and how can HR step in with empathy instead of assumptions?

In this episode of Confident HR Conversations, I sat down with expat and career coach Dominika Miernik to explore the subtle but powerful ways culture shapes how we communicate, collaborate, and show up at work.


Whether you're onboarding global talent, supporting expats, or working in a multicultural team, this conversation is your practical guide to creating a truly inclusive and understanding workplace.

We discuss how cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings, how to design check-ins that actually support international employees, and what HR can do to foster trust and belonging without asking people to “just fit in.”


Listen in for real examples, practical strategies, and a mindset shift that every HR leader working with global teams should hear.
