Benefits

The course will be tailored, practical and fun. It will draw on current cultural experts' research on international cultures, and the trainer's extensive experience of working with Europeans, Asians, Americans, Latin Americans, Africans and the Arab World. It will use participants' own experience of working with different cultures, and they will be encouraged to share stories, look for solutions and role-play their scenarios

By the end of this cultural workshop, participants will:

  • understand what motivates their international partners
  • understand how and when they need to modify their business behaviour to create a positive impression and avoid unintentional offence with their international partners
  • be able to use a range of techniques for effective cross- cultural communication to build an effective team
  • have a toolbox of practical tips that will be immediately useful in their next encounter with their international partners
  • understand how best to build and strengthen their international joint venture teams
