Intercultural Business Communication - Toronto, Canada

Intercultural, or cross-cultural business communication is one of the most critical factors contributing to business growth and success in today's ever more complex global marketplace - whether in Toronto, Canada or internationally.  The ability of companies to acquire intercultural competence can either make or break their chances of success in an increasingly competitive, international business arena.  As a result, many companies and organizations are wisely investing in cultural awareness training for their leaders and employees in order to tap into some huge potential international markets.

SpringHills offers the ideal solution to this growing challenge, with a wide range of programs and services that specifically address the intercultural business communication challenge:

Communication in Multicultural Environments

Does your business or organization recognize the advantages of a diverse workplace and is it being utilized to its fullest potential?

SpringHills can deliver customized, cost-effective seminars and workshops specifically designed to address issues of cross-cultural communications and diversity.  Our programs focus on empowering employees from diverse backgrounds by helping them to develop the skills to succeed in the North American business culture, as well as helping them to expand their cultural awareness and intercultural competence. Employees are able to increase their awareness of differences in societal and behavioral norms across cultures, thereby enhancing overall communication and productivity in the workplace. 

Doing Business Across Cultures

Are your employees optimizing their interactions with clients, suppliers and partners?

Common business practices are often assumed to be universal, when in fact each country and culture operates within it's own business culture and cultural framework. This is what is known as a "cultural gap" that can produce disastrous results in international business.  SpringHills can help you to avoid costly intercultural mistakes by increasing employee cultural awareness and sensitivity with broad based instruction and focus programs on specific cultures and unique business practices.

Effective Relocation and Adaptation - Foreign Assignments

Are you ensuring that your employees are prepared for international and temporary foreign assignments?

Relocating employees abroad is an expensive and time-consuming investment. Success invariably depends on how well employees are prepared for the many challenges of working and living in a new culture.  SpringHills designs programs that are tailored specifically to the target culture, and include intensive training on everything from culture shock, to cultural integration, to understanding the social and business practices of the target country.
