Interpersonal relationships
Now take a look at your interpersonal relationship network picture: What kind of support you receive from different individuals/groups within your network? What do you give in return? What is the meaning of these different individuals / groups for you? Please return your reflection into the Reflection report. If you wish to do so, you can also share your picture and ideas with the others in an discussion board.
‘Transnational’ relationships
In today’s global world refugees are not the only ones having to deal with ‘transnational’ relationships. Transnational relationships are extending across geographical distances and national boundaries. Everyone travelling away from home will have to deal with long distances in one’s relationships and transnational relationships. How do you think that this should be taken into consideration in multinational workplaces where at least some employees are immigrants and/or in schools where some students have an immigrant background?
A perspective of a leader: To be friends or not to be
