Intercultural Training
Training for International Business Professionals Working in Germany
Intercultural Training
In our globalised and internationalised life and work environment it is becoming increasingly more important to manage intercultural situations in a competent way.
It is one thing to master a foreign language, but another to know about the guiding principles and values of your business partners and co-workers from different cultural backgrounds. Why are there frequent misunderstandings in communication in international teams which can make collaboration difficult?
Besides specialist and language qualifications, social skills and intercultural competence are decisive factors for your success!
For this reason, The Travelling Teacher offers you intercultural training.
What are the benefits of intercultural competence?
- You save time, money and eliminate stress
- Misunderstandings and conflicts are effectively prevented
- Your projects will run smoothly
Our recommendation
Establish and maintain a pleasant work environment of mutual respect and appreciation, conducive to joint success in your company, project or team; by gaining knowledge and awareness of cultural similarities and differences and overcoming the resulting challenges in social interaction.
Optimise international collaboration, prevent intercultural conflict. Recognise opportunities and make use of the synergy potential that arises from cultural diversity!
“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” Benjamin Franklin
