for intercultural teams

Intercultural communication and cooperation

How do you take account of cultural differences and make them advantages for the group? This workshop is about the cultural challenges that arise, when people from different cultural backgrounds meet face-to-face

We identify and train how to work with and analyze concrete practices that respect cultural differences and how a team might even come out stronger because of them?
