Since postmodern globalization people in international business had to adapt to more frequent and faster changes in organizations. While before then most employees remained at the same company for their whole work life, it is more common nowadays to change jobs more often. Dynamics and flexibility have therefore become key values in many international organizations. However, not all cultures respond to those new challenges in the same way.

This workshop focuses on effective communication strategies to support high performance through communication behaviors which are adapted to meeting the challenges of collaboaration across geographical distance, time-zones, and technology, as well as a range of cultural styles.

And finally: What are the firm spots of these famously polite and gentle people? This open workshop will try to answer these questions.
