Global Effectiveness: Cross-Cultural Training and Management
Global competency, the ability to navigate cross-cultural differences to communicate successfully, is a fundamental element of international business success. All aspects of business, including relationship building and problem-solving, are impacted by culture. Cross-Cultural Training has become a standard component in the talent management and development strategies of many leading organizations. Understanding different cultural interactions and business styles strengthens team cohesiveness and effectiveness across all corporate functions from sales to procurement, technology, and support services. In the rapidly expanding and changing global marketplace, business leaders are being asked to do more with less support, preparation, time and resources.
CAI helps current and future leaders to be more effective in:
- working effectively within a multicultural team
- forming and leading global and virtual teams
- relocating and transitioning to new countries and cultures
- recognizing and developing global leadership potential
Unlike other larger firms, CAI’s highly experienced experts work closely with key stakeholders, sponsors and personnel to recognize their most urgent needs and then create customized solutions, which might range from:
- a half-day, highly personalized “Leading across Borders” coaching session for a harried executive in a business lounge at Buenos Aires’ airport
- a one-day “Doing Business with India” training course for a group of 25 Boston-based software engineers, who are constantly exchanging e-mails and phone calls with their colleagues in Bangalore
- a two-day “Living and Working in Scotland” orientation program for a middle manager and her family of four, relocating from Perth, Australia to Perth, Scotland
- a three-day “Global Synergy” interactive workshop for an eight-nation project team that is meeting for the first and only time in Shanghai
CAI’s customized training programs can be delivered face-to-face or virtually.

Participants will develop action plans to enhance the attributes, skills, and competencies that will allow them to succeed as a global leader (Additional living component available).
