Intercultural Training

Successful business relationships depend on anticipating and allowing for cultural differences; and these preparations are never more important than in the international arena. inlingua prepares professionals to meet these opportunities and maximize their time and efforts abroad.

Our intercultural programs will take you beyond the Do's and Taboos to examine the assumptions that drive the culture. We explore not only the way a culture looks and acts, but why it looks and acts that way. All of our programs emphasize relationships and relationship building.

Each program is customized to reflect your special circumstances. You'll be encouraged to examine your own culture, the target culture, and the possibilities available when the two interact. You'll then apply your insights in problem-solving strategy sessions.

The types of programs and level of customization available are unlimited. Most programs fall into one of three broad categories: the business and social behaviors of people in the target culture, relocation to another country and developing specific skills for intercultural business. Even with an exhaustive needs analysis and course tailoring, these business-savvy programs are surprisingly affordable.

The goal of all our intercultural programs is to increase your effectiveness in pursuing your business objectives abroad. Once your program is over, you'll find we're still close at hand to discuss your real-world results and refine the techniques we developed together. It's a winning partnership we're confident you will value.
