training
SETTLER INTERNATIONAL
RELOCATION, along with our cross-cultural partner Eaton
Consulting Group, is pleased to offer our clients a variety of cross
cultural training courses that provide expatriates and business professionals
with the knowledge and competencies to live and work successfully across
cultural lines.
Thriving
in ...
(or
one of 50 other possible cultures)
This one day program, targeted to the individual family, will provide
all expatriate employees and their spouses/partners and children with
the critical information to thrive, not just survive. The skills needed
to complete these tasks successfully are not innate. Cross-cultural
training can provide the missing competencies and knowledge to fill
the gap. A customized, one-on-one program can ensure the needs of the
expatriates are met before they depart on assignment.

As a result of this program, participants will:
- Gain
insight into key cultural similarities and differences between their
individual style and that of their counterparts
- Learn
to accurately "read" their international counterparts' behavior
and understand the "why" behind their actions;
Develop the ability to adapt their leadership, communication, and
work style to be successful in the new cultural environment
- Obtain
valuable information about living, including social/business protocol
and etiquette
- Build
confidence to be better prepared to take on challenging cross-cultural
situations which are a mystery prior to training
- Address
the issues surrounding cultural adaptation and family adjustment
Methods
Mini-presentations, cross-cultural audit, "Stages of Adjustment"
curve, lifestyle checklist, critical incidents/ caselettes, simulations,
and action planning.
