Live and communicate effectively
Program Overview
Our in-person Cultural Training Program prepares assignees and families to live and communicate effectively with their new colleagues and neighbors. This one or two-day program provides an overview of personal culture and host culture while giving a framework for navigating the differences between the two. Programs are customizable to the needs of the assignee and can prioritize content to focus on business or more on personal interactions and social aspects of the new culture. Participants will better understand the challenges faced and be armed with tools to succeed.
