WIL Group Academy
"Fit for China"
Exclusive crash course as part of the WIL Group Academy
Intercultural competence can determine whether international projects are successful or not. It not only leads to increased efficiency, time savings and stress reduction, but has also been proven to save project costs by avoiding intercultural friction.
Points of contact with the Chinese are increasing rapidly in this country. Yet we still know far too little about the motives, strategies and backgrounds of our business partners. Take the time to learn what is important in building and shaping a trusting business relationship.
This crash course, which we are offering for the third time in a row, will provide you with basic knowledge about Chinese culture, mentality, ways of thinking and working. You will get to know selected intercultural basics as an “orientation framework” and reflect on differences and similarities in the cooperation between the two cultures. You will develop your own checklist for success factors and procedures in a project assignment with Chinese and how to become capable of acting as quickly and effectively as possible.
Fit for China!
It is often small stumbling blocks that prevent successful cooperation if you are not familiar with the cultural circumstances of your counterpart. Intercultural competence plays a decisive role in business success.
Your trainer, Isabelle Hansen, knows the Chinese culture very well. She uses selected methods to prepare you for the different cultural requirements. Through the introduction of individual questions as well as the collegial exchange of experiences, optimal results are achieved in the group.
