Cross-Cultural Training
If you are sending staff to work overseas or you are receiving business visitors from overseas, we can help by providing cross-cultural training.
The success of staff going to work overseas often depends on how well they can recognise and respond to differing cultural circumstances. They will operate more effectively if they know know what to expect and can adapt to some of the social courtesies, taboos etc that they will meet.
It is also vital to prepare your UK staff for overseas visitors from partner or client firms or other delegations.
Waylink's cross-cultural training programme for business includes:
- greetings and social conventions
- business meetings
- styles of negotiation
- food, drink, socializing and entertainment
- the use of English in international settings
- body language
- social, economic, political and current affairs briefing.
Your cross-cultural training programme will be tailored specifically to your needs and be designed and delivered by professional staff with many years of international experience of working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds.
Waylink can run individual and group sessions and provide enjoyable learning activities that really develop trainees' perceptiveness and subtle communication skills rather than just conveying stereotypical ideas of "foreign ways".
