Mr de Groot's address to our Upper School stressed the importance of global awareness and cultural awareness as strategies for avoiding cultural, lingual, and geographical goof-ups.
In his interactive presentation, Mr. de Groot provided real life examples of how a lack of global or cultural awareness resulted in negative and often embarrassing consecuences major corporations.
Mr. de Groot ended his message by challenging our student body to become more aware of global issues and open to learning about other cultures.
