Which practice demonstrates cultural humility with external partners?

• A. Avoid feedback.
• B. Acknowledge limitations, ask about preferences, listen actively, adapt practices respectfully, and ensure mutual benefit.
• C. Assure you know best.
• D. Impose your own methods

Answer: (B)

Cultural humility in partnerships means recognizing you may not fully understand another culture's context and approaching collaboration with curiosity, openness, and a willingness to adjust. The best approach embodies that mindset by acknowledging your own limitations, asking about preferences, listening actively, adapting practices respectfully, and aiming for outcomes that benefit both sides. This shows respect for partners’ knowledge and autonomy and centers a truly collaborative relationship rather than one-sided control.

Options that avoid feedback, insist you know best, or impose your own methods don’t fit this approach. Avoiding feedback blocks learning and understanding; insisting you know best signals arrogance and a lack of willingness to learn; imposing your own methods disregards the partner’s context and needs.
