Our Methods

In our long teaching praxis we recognise that each person prefers different learning styles and techniques.

It is why we use a variety different teaching methods to get the same message across and make sure that no one is left out or falls behind. It is our way of making sure that all participants engage with all of the subject content, especially the key concepts and learning points.

Our Methods: Diverse and Interactive

Our trainings consist of different sessions combining short lectures and practical exercises and involves a great deal of interaction. Simulations and team exercises aim to not only identify, but to fully understand the key differences in cultural behaviour. During the training, members of different cultures automatically start explaining their own cultural pre-programming to others thereby creating a deep learning experience for all participants. And the positive energy which evolves is truly amazing!
