Cultural Competency
Developing Cultural Sensi@vity
Culture is complex but not it is
chaotic.
Developing Cultural Sensi@vity
We perceive the values of our culture
in moral terms and therefore we tend
to view other peoples’ values as
morally inferior.

Dimensions of cultural variability

1961; Markus and Kitayama, 1991; Nisbett et al. 1994
Seeing Culture - Social Orienta@on
Individualist Collectivist
independence, self sufficiency, self-
interest, self-actualisa@on, privacy,
tends to use “I” and “me” a lot, makes
eye contact readily, rela@onships
based on mutual benefit
loyalty, obliga@ons, du@es-based social system,
interdependence, tends to maintain group
harmony at all @mes, rela@onships are
perceived in moral terms (like a family link),
tendency to use “we”, are reserved with “out-
groups”
Seeing Culture - Power Distance
Small Large
equal opportunity, status is earned, individuals
are encouraged to contribute to decision
making (a meaning of “patient-centred care” in
health consultation), interdependence
between team members, individuals need to
be consulted
power distributed unequally, the more
powerful feels a duty to take care of
others (eg doctors makes decisions for
patients with the patient’s best interest in
mind), less powerful people are
dependent on those in positions of power
A Brief Journey
➔ Aiming for a Culturally Safe learning and work environment
➔ Imbedding Cultural Competence in the workplace
➔ Towards Cultural Intelligence
➔ Developing Cultural Sensitivity
➔ Seeing Our Own Cultural Values
“Culture hides more than it
reveals, and strangely enough
what it hides, it hides most
effectively from its own
participants.”
ET Hall, 1976
