I believe in the power of dance as a tool for

cultural diplomacy, social cohesion, creative expression, personal empowerment and global connections.

MY COMMITMENTS

My personal and professional commitment is a continuous mission to serve my community by sharing my career journey and professional growth with those seeking knowledge and collaboration. This dedication enables me to contribute meaningfully to the local, global and multicultural dance landscape, fostering connection and understanding across diverse perspectives.

What being a Cultural manager means to me

As a cultural manager, I align myself with an evolving field that bridges the principles of creativity and management. Cultural management has grown from traditional arts administration, incorporating entrepreneurial strategies, and now embraces co-creation and user-centered approaches. My work reflects the essence of Cross-Cultural Management (CCM), which focuses on human behavior, interaction, and the influence of culture within organizations. By fostering collaboration across diverse cultural landscapes, I seek to understand and enhance the dynamics between individuals and communities, ensuring that every initiative is deeply rooted in its unique organizational and personal context.

Promote dance diplomacy

For me, cultural and dance diplomacy are deeply personal, reflecting my belief in the transformative power of culture as a bridge between people, communities, and nations. While the term “cultural diplomacy” may be modern, its essence has existed for centuries—seen in the work of explorers, artists, and teachers who acted as informal ambassadors, exchanging ideas and fostering mutual understanding. Cultural diplomacy goes beyond simple exchanges; it is about connecting hearts and minds, fostering peace, and countering division through shared cultural experiences.
