Why do we run cross cultural training workshops?

The answer is that cross cultural exposure is not the same as cross-cultural knowledge and having an experience does not necessarily mean understanding it.

To understand and apply your new knowledge, you need to make sense of the experience and new skills you are learning and then apply those skills yourself. This is exactly what our cross-cultural training workshop is designed to enable you to do.

Who is this workshop for?

Our cross-cultural training workshops are excellent for all staff roles as they encourage and foster dealing with cultural diversities.

These important staff skill building workshops involve learning about the multi-faceted dynamic Australian culture and examining the behaviors and values of people in Australia. The workshop then progresses to analyse the differences in the participant’s original culture to view and discuss variations in assumptions, values and cultural behaviors’ of the original culture.

Cross Cultural Training Workshops Learning Outcomes:

These workshops will help you to understand the values and beliefs behind behavior and Australian cultural differences. The goal in cross-cultural training is to increase your understanding, to give you a powerful set of skills and experience so that you will be able to interact professionally and successfully with Australian staff and customers.

It will enable participants to better communicate with Australian staff and customers and to better understand the work culture of Australia.
