Cross Cultural Training

Firms providing orientation and training programs for relocated employees (and their families) to familiarize them with the tools for living and working effectively in diverse cultures. Programs may be focused on a specific foreign location or may be a generic overview about transferring between cultures. Typical program content includes: comparing and contrasting value systems and how they impact behaviors; business and social protocol; the emotional transition and lifestyle adjustment; and strategies for success in the new culture. The term “cross-cultural” implies interactions between two cultures.
