The subject of an intervention can be any type of project or management issue initiated by organizations in an intercultural environment. This ranges from knowledge-transfer workshops to the support of extensive change projects. Some examples follow.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Common understanding of the mission<\/h4><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

A workshop ensured that the members of the multicultural board of an international college<\/a> in the French-speaking part of Switzerland optimized their cooperation, not least thanks to a common understanding of their mission.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Inappropriate leadership style<\/h4><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

Swiss managers wanted employees in the South American branch to be managed like we do. i.e. with a lot of autonomy, whereby active participation is expected. They were frustrated when the followers behaved very differently.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Post merger integration<\/h4><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

In an international merger, one camp is often one of the losers, which affects the motivation of many. Our experience shows that this condition lasts for a very long time if you don't take countermeasures early on.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Apply intercultural communication professionally.<\/span><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

That we are not all \u201cprogrammed\u201d in the same way, we experience not only in greeting rituals and small talk. Communication is fundamentally complex, all the more so in an intercultural setting. Misunderstandings, disappointed expectations and helplessness are often the rule in cross-border cooperation. As in every project, there are also material losses. It is therefore essential to prepare thoroughly for iterating with people from other cultures. This is where our cross-cultural consulting services can detect systemic weaknesses and provide valuable solutions. Our combined project management and intercultural experience can contribute substantially to the success of your projects..<\/p>\n<\/div>

Cross-cultural consulting: Culture diagnostic<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

A cultural analysis makes differences in the basic attitude and communication style of the respective team members transparent. An open discussion about this in the team promotes integration and prevents potential conflicts. Based on the knowledge gained, line managers and project managers can use synergies from the different culture-based characteristics. A cultural analysis can also be used to determine the various motives of the stakeholders in a project and to act accordingly.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Management of internationally distributed teams.<\/span><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

The management of intercultural, virtual teams is very complex compared to local groups. The lack of face-to-face communication is at odds with the everyday need for interaction. Promoting team identity and motivation requires an increased perception of the manager in their role as communicator, inspirer and coach. Our cross-cultural consulting services and trainings considerably minimize risks and provide a valuable support.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Cross-cultural consulting for post-merger integration<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Overall, one in two mergers fail. This is mostly due to the underestimation of \u201ccultural distance\u201d. Since two organizational cultures and two national cultures collide in international mergers of companies, special skills are required from managers. This means the ability to behave in a culturally appropriate manner and to lead effectively in an intercultural area. Our cross-cultural consulting services can provide many appropriate solutions.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Our perspective.<\/span><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The development of intercultural competence allows conflicts to be avoided within a multicultural organization and at the same time increases productivity. For the individual, the acquisition of this ability means a big leap in personality development. The manager who makes it has reached a higher level of leadership. The manager who makes it has reached a higher level of leadership. This is the subject of our cross-cultural consulting services.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
