Cross - Cultural Training
Build meaningful relationships with Japanese colleagues, clients, and partners by understanding the culture behind the language
What is Culture?
Culture matters more than language
Culture is the way of life of a group of people, including patterns of thought, beliefs, behaviour, customs, traditions, rituals, dress, language, art, music and literature.
The culture of a country has significant influence on how business is conducted, as a consequence, sociocultural implications are crucial for succeeding internationally. While conducting business operations, a lack of multicultural sensitivity might upset potential or current clients.
Communication between people from different cultures is referred to as cross-cultural communication. At Saachi, we have devised an authentic cross cultural training program which will help you to overcome cultural barriers and increase your awareness of social and business etiquette of Japanese culture.
Japan has its own set of business practices and conventions. At times, this can be a challenge for foreigners as they are not privy to such behavioural norms. Our training programs will help you learn and understand these norms which will ease interaction with Japanese people.
Learning to connect with Japanese people is crucial as they may not always communicate directly with words but make use of certain subtle gestures. This training will help you hear what is not being said.
