Intercultural Training

Professional success when working overseas or dealing with foreign partners depends on many factors. One of the most important is frequently underestimated: intercultural skills.

The way we communicate is a direct result of the culture we live in. That's why in an unfamiliar environment, and especially in the business world, misunderstandings can easily arise. Experts estimate that more than half of all international business deals collapse because of cultural differences.
