Today's business has gone global and our work environments are international and multi-cultural. That trend is here to stay and going to increase. It also creates challenges as we try to communicate, conduct business and build relationships here and in the rest of the world.
Understanding the cultures you are dealing with is critically important as much of your communications are non-verbal and may define how you are being perceived. Did you just offend them or behave inappropriately? Are you getting closer to a deal or just shut the door? How do you recover from that? How do you motivate and reward?
This is where mygoodadvice comes in. Our workplace consultants hands-on experience working with different cultures and international business environments can help you gain particular skills and even a new level of appreciation for your counterparts. We engage in a personal one-on-one conversation, yet keeping you completely anonymous and comfortable. After gaining a good understanding of your particular needs, our advice will focus around:
- How you and your actions might be perceived
- Tools on effective international negotiations
- How to foster mutual appreciation and build trust
- Icebreakers and how to recover from mistakes
