Fluent Culture Services - Training

Based on more than 30 years of cross-cultural working experience, Fluent Culture training takes organisations through the most important factors for successful international collaboration.

While training is always bespoke to your company’s needs, broadly speaking the learning can be split into two levels: cultural awareness, and skills for successful cross cultural working.

Cultural Awareness

In many cases, cultural stumbling blocks occur because people simply aren’t aware they exist. Those managing global teams for the first time can be blind to the many different nuances in communication and leadership style that are required to get results within multi-cultural environments. In some cases, this leads to amusing ‘lost-in-translation’ anecdotes; in others, more serious damage is done.

Our cultural awareness training is designed to help you anticipate and recognise where cultural expectations may require a different approach. We use a tried and tested model of cross-cultural awareness; it will help you to recognise your own cultural type, as well as your implicit cultural assumptions and biases. You will also learn how to recognise  and ‘diagnose’ different cultural types, and understand the different expectations certain cultures have around business and relationship building.

This is our recommended introduction training for any manager or team new to cross-cultural working.

Skill Building

An awareness of cultural difference in the workplace is one thing – knowing how to get the best from your global teams is quite another.

Based on 30 years of cross-cultural experience, as well as the latest research into effective cross-cultural working our advanced programme will help your company maximise your company’s success in the modern, global work environment.

Areas covered include:

  • How to adapt communication across cultural borders
  • How to adapt leadership style for different cultural groups
  • Motivating techniques for multi-cultural, global teams
  • How to work with specific, cross-cultural partners, e.g. suppliers, agencies etc.

This training can be tailored to your organisation’s specific needs, and delivered as a standalone session or as an ongoing series of CPD.
