What does intercultural mean?

 

Being intercultural is a key to living a meaningful life in the current and future world.

Being intercultural is about knowing how human diversity affects one’s identity development, work competence, and life itself. Diversity is all around us. It encompasses both local and global diversity.

Why does the Helix model work?

Your company is suddenly becoming culturally diverse.

Your company may be going global, outsourcing many functions of your business and you are involved in negotiations and business meetings with people from various countries.  You know that there are different cultural business etiquette and protocol that are unique to different countries; you may have done some cross-cultural training and learned DOs and DON’Ts. But is that enough?

You are wondering how you can transform your company into a truly global one where leadership and employees have the competence to build and maintain an intercultural work environment. Let us work with you.

Your company may be rapidly becoming culturally diverse because of the demographics changes in the local work force. You may have already done much work towards diversity and racism awareness. The questions then become: now what? Where do we go from here? Our approach is to be that next step.

Through the transformational learning process, we will:

  • Capture the initial status of the way your organization and its leaders view cultural diversity. 

We start your organizational transformation process by looking at your current orientation towards cultural difference and proceed from there.

  • Provide direction in developing solutions and educational interventions.

Our comprehensive programs are based on our Interculturalist Helix Model that is designed to tailor-make a professional development process for your company needs.

We work with you through the process. We will be your guide through the learning process, as resourceful consultants, dynamic trainers, engaging coaches, and accurate assessors.

We meet you where you’re at, not where we think you should be, with the goal being to be intercultural. 

Building intercultural capacity will enhance your goals of developing strong leaders in your company and teams. 

Our aim is to support leadership by facilitating a professional development processes towards intercultural capacity building so that you become more interculturally competent.

For our intercultural training, coaching, and consultation, we listen to your needs and concerns as well as conduct necessary assessments. 

We utilize all data, including statistical data that is objective and reliable, to tailor-make learning processes that best fit your needs.
