At ICUnet.Group, Intercultural Qualification encompasses the acquisition of culture-specific competencies through training, coaching, consulting and E-Learning.
Are your employees traveling for business around the world? Or do they work virtually with other cultures? Mutual understanding is essential for successful global business. This allows for the strengths of each culture to come together and to increase performance.
With a global team of over 40 different nations, the team of ICUnet.Group lives cultural diversity every day. We know what it takes. Let us coach you and your employees, all the way up to the management level.

Effectiveness
Do you want to be successful internationally?
We think that the key to successful global collaboration is to develop a basic understanding of other cultures, and to reflect and be open-minded about cultural differences, without stereotyping.
Cultural awareness and the ability to view situations individually and from different perspectives open up new horizons for you in global business. At the same time, having intercultural skills may save you time and money. For example, if your employees are culturally prepared to negotiate with someone in another country, they may only need to travel once to that country to get a contract or deal signed.
Our worldwide trainers who speak more than 25 languages are delighted to enable you!

Training
Through intercultural training, especially with the help of our Intercultural Preference Tool (IPT®), employees will become more aware of their cultural preferences and characteristics. The tool will compare individual preferences to those of another culture. This will prepare participants for potential pitfalls.
In addition, our expert trainers will share practical tips on how to deal constructively with cultural tendencies.

Our one-day negotiation training with ICUnet was a complete success. The trainers provided very useful information and enriched it with practical examples. We will be offering further training courses in the future to give more colleagues the opportunity to expand their intercultural awareness.

I would like to thank you very much for the great workshop, which received a lot of positive feedback internally at Otto. The good and catchy methodology was particularly praised, always underpinned with examples and many anecdotes, which led to eager discussion and reflection. This laid a very good foundation for a much better understanding between our cultures and thus value systems, and I would be delighted if we could approach the ICUnet.Group again if we have a need!
