Modern business is global by nature and teams are invariably composed of people from diverse cultures. Success in a multi-cultural setting relies heavily on the ability of employees and stakeholders to communicate effectively and efficiently.
When to focus on cross-cultural dynamics?
Organizations often face cross-cultural communications issues during corporate actions (mergers, acquisitions, joint-ventures) and during every day operations when integrating expats into a local office or managing international virtual teams.
Why invest in cross-cultural team-building?
Better communication results in more synergy and innovation, faster progress toward goals, fewer misunderstanding, more satisfying work environments and better employee retention.
