Leadership of Multinational Teams

We love what we do

When everybody in a team speaks the same language managers often make the assumption that they think in the same way. But this is not so. People put into the same English or German words different meanings - based on the different mental programming that is conditioned since birth by their culture of origin. 

We are uniquely positioned to command the combined consequences of National and Organizational Culture for global business management.

We design and deliver programs which develop leadership skills on a new competence level - leading effectively in a globalized world economy.

Our data-driven approach tests both teams and leaders and based on results provides solutions about how to get the job done across different cultures in the world.

  • concepts of time, schedule and deadlines in different working cultures

  • attitudes to rules, structure, technical discipline, paperwork

  • decision-making, persuasion and presenting in various cultural contexts
