Working in a Global Environment - The Cultural Perspective

Many of our clients have a global remit which means they can find themselves dealing with contacts from virtually anywhere in the world.  These people need to have an overview of the types of areas where cultural differences impact on general business issues and need to develop strategies, both personal and organisational, for ensuring that a global footprint is a help and not a handicap.

These generic seminars explore the impact of cultural differences on international business. Practically-based exercises give delegates an insight into the influence of culture on both day-to-day and strategic issues.  A wide variety of topics are covered and examples given from many different cultures. As a key element in raising levels of cultural awareness, delegates are encouraged to assess their own cultural approach and its role in shaping an individual's view of the rest of the world.


Typical issues covered might include

  • Overcoming personal bias
  • International meeting styles
  • Decision-making processes
  • Attitudes to hierarchy
  • Relationship-building across cultures
  • Leadership styles
  • Communicating effectively
  • Body language
  • Gender issues
  • Entertaining
