In today’s globalized economy, chances

Key point for me is that we all communicate in different ways for any given situation due to our cultural baggage.

About Christina Kwok Christina brings passion, enthusiasm and energy to her

training together with a unique cross-cultural perspective

culled from years of experience living and working abroad in

Malaysia, US, UK and Switzerland. Her creative approach

Find out how she can help your organization to develop

high-performing global teams while raising employee

engagement.

Cultural differences In my customized training courses, I bring up key national or regional cultural differences that makes the Asian, Middle Eastern or African market different from the Western European or American market, and hence impact the way companies do business:

Implicit or Explicit communication Task- or Relationship- focus High- or Low- Uncertainty Avoidance Individualist or Collectivist mindsets High- or Low- Power Distance

cultures Long- or Short- Term Orientation

Weaving these themes in my speaking, key success factors are: Reminding senior managers of the

opportunities & challenges of working, managing and leading in a multicultural environment

Preparing Middle-Senior Level Executives for global careers

Understanding the mindsets and perspectives of the people you lead to better motivate them

Facilitating successful change initiatives across a diverse organization
