Cross Cultural Communications in a Global Marketplace

Being more effective in a diverse, international business environment

We all speak English, don’t we?  But do the British, Germans, French and Japanese really all communicate in English in the same way?  Assuming what works well in the UK will be effective in another culture or with non-native speakers can be costly and problematic, for example, when delivering research findings, liaising with overseas clients or conducting research abroad.

If you have ever experienced misunderstandings with your colleagues or clients, our one-day Cross Cultural Communications in a Global Marketplace course is for you!
