National cultures can be described along several dimensions, including power distance. The culture will influence how debriefings unfold: Who talks to whom about what and in what form? What are debriefing taboo topics? What are the prerequisites to optimise the learning? 

After a short presentation of recent findings from a study in debriefings in different cultures and a model to describe cultures, participants will work interactively with debriefings role plays and adjust those along the different dimensions of culture in small groups. A concluding discussion will investigate other relevant cultures that might need adjustment (e.g. departmental, professional, discipline-oriented).
 
Learning Objectives:
  1. Describe a model that relates to national cultures.
  2. Discuss how culture can influence debriefings.
  3. Discuss strategies to adjust debriefings to multi-culture contexts.​
