Why intercultural training on the Arab World?

Many Arab countries today are pursuing ambitious economic policy plans: expanding infrastructure, diversifying the economy, ensuring a sustainable energy supply, modernizing the health and education systems and improving water supply and transport routes.

Companies often see the Arab world as a whole, but the UAE should not be compared to Tunisia and Qatar should not be compared to Morocco. This is precisely why cultural know-how is essential for successful business transactions in the Arab World.

Establish agility and an innovation culture with concrete steps.

In contrast to the traditional waterfall method of change management, the agile route assumes that change is possible everywhere in the system. Along this route, teams and their development are especially important as sites for change. In this regard, learning nuggets represent a significant component to agile and thus autonomous learning. Short videos, brief study units, our Cultural Navigator as prework, e-learning sessions, topic-specific apps, guided lunch & learn units or numerous other flexible and spontaneously employable tools can be used as an alternate or enhancement to various topics. You will find several learning nuggets in our portfolio. In addition, we delight in the chance to develop new ones with you, in order to structure agile and thus sustainable learning in your enterprise.

 

We’d be happy to take the time to tell you about our learning nuggets or develop some with you.

✕

Work in a concentrated and success-oriented manner.

In our workshops, you can develop your goals, spheres of activity and strategies with our guidance. Our moderators provide a supportive atmosphere and lend a temporal and content-based structure to your topics. That means you can work out your topics quickly and in a practical and target-oriented manner. The expertise of each individual team member is the hub of this activity. We make use of this expertise through methods in which cooperative work is supported. The narrow focus on one specific topic in a precisely defined time period enables concentrated and success-oriented work.

 

Get in touch with us, and we’ll develop the right workshop for your objectives.

Go from "prepackaged learning" to agile learning formats.

Most of the learning process – studies cite approximately 70% - happens during the normal work day. Self-directed learning thus becomes the most important component of learning in an enterprise. In order to do justice to this circumstance, there is no way around moving from “prepackaged learning” to agile learning formats. This modern approach can be organized very well with several combinable tools and methods. Learning thus becomes sustainable and is no longer reduced to the simple memorization of facts. ti communication has always viewed training as a part of a process and not as a singular event. Now we are even greater advocates than ever of developing the space and opportunities for learners in an enterprise to educate themselves. We are happy to advise HR and PE staff along this path and ready to support teams and managers with concrete learning nuggets, tools, e-learning courses, etc.

 

We’ll bring your learning processes to life. Just talk to us and see for yourself.

We’ll make your company interfaces seamless.

Processes represent the nervous system of an enterprise. Structures keep those processes grounded. In the complex environment of companies, the ability to make decisions and speed at which they are made play a decisive role in success. We will develop processes and structures with you that will increase efficiency and decrease transaction costs. Interfaces become seamless sources of continual improvement. Together, internal processes are clarified, whether they be innovation, administrative, sales or control processes. Tasks, roles and goals are defined and measured. Understanding internal and external customers and supplier relationships bolsters this continual improvement process. Measuring the results gives employees feedback on their own efficiency and that of the team.

Short, informative and to the point.

Our virtual short seminars give you initial fundamental information. In these virtual sessions, lasting no more than two hours, we can sensitize you to the basics or peculiarities of selected topics or countries. Each of these virtual short seminars ends with a final question round, in which a few questions can be asked and answered about the topic. This format is ideal for pairing basic information with brief opportunities to pose questions.

Flexible, inexpensive, interactive.

Our virtual training will open up the world to you. The combination of compact knowledge transfer, a personal relationship to the trainer, practical exercises and the development of concrete transfer strategies are what makes our training sessions unique.

Your advantages:

  • A virtual training course can be divided into several web sessions, thus additionally reinforcing the learning process
  • A higher degree of flexibility with relatively low organizational effort.
  • Inexpensive alternative to face-to-face events for very small participant groups

At your location, perfectly tailored, interactive.

Our training opens up the world to you with compact knowledge transfer and a personal relationship to your trainer. There are topics and developments that are best treated in a face-to-face format. Especially those training units that are strongly focused on exercises and trying things out can be more easily and spontaneously implemented in person. Face-to-face training promotes networking between participants to a greater degree. Particularly in breaks spent with each other, there are opportunities to exchange ideas which are not insignificant. Face-to-face training lives on the interactive structure and the dynamic of being able to address participant questions in a more individual and targeted manner and the ability to create a beneficial learning atmosphere. Classic face-to-face training, however, is not necessarily the measure of all things. From our point of view, it is especially the combination of face-to-face elements with other digital components which boosts the learning process immensely.

We work in and in relation to 130 countries. Just ask us where face-to-face training alone or in combination with virtual components would make sense for you.

We develop the personalities of your best people.

Develop the personalities of your best people in a targeted manner with coaching. Our coaching sessions are dedicated to the holistic further development of selected employees with regard to current or expected challenges in teams locally or internationally. Tailored to their respective needs, our experienced coaches work together with clients to identify strengths and deficits and cultivate personal goals and implementation strategies in order to improve basic key qualifications, leadership style, time management, creativity or presentation techniques. In doing so, where needed, we implement proven methods of personnel assessment and leadership development.

Make the most of your events.

We engage our moderators in seminars and conferences, in organizational development, in congresses and conventions, in meetings and in project and quality management. The objective is always to develop a common learning process. Moderation facilitates successful process control, the securing of concrete results and professional conflict resolution. Skilled employees and managers can then more easily work together, even with participants from other cultures, to set goals, develop strategies or design products. Our experienced, interculturally competent and neutral moderators ensure a professional, collaborative and goal-oriented work process, thus taking the burden off of your accountable employees.
