Cross-Cultural Component

"When Cultures Collide", available in several languages

Gaining a competitive edge through culture

Our Chairman Richard D. Lewis is one of the world’s leading cross-cultural thinkers, and so we are ideally placed to give a powerful and practical cross-cultural input to your training where needed.

Communication is not just about language, but about the values behind our words and our behaviour. Most of our training includes some cross-cultural elements, based on our own unique model of culture and a vast bank of material that no other language training centre has access to.

During your needs analysis we can plan more specific help in this area if needed. You can choose from more than 100 national cultures to learn about, or take a more general or functional approach.

For example, you may wish to improve the productivity and success of a virtual team you are leading, or adapt your presentation for the USA.

You can even take a day or two out of your language training to have a pure focus on cross-culture, for an additional fee.

All course participants can choose to take a Personal Cultural Profile at our award-winning CultureActive website and go through the results with a trainer.

We have also now integrated Cross-Cultural Dialogue Maps into our training programmes at Riversdown House. Click for further details.
