As our planet seemingly becomes smaller and we find ourselves sharing an increasingly global workspace, one of the challenges we face is effective communication with people of different cultures. Interpersonal relationships are difficult at the best of times but when they are complicated by matters of language and culture the likelihood of misunderstandings, embarrassing moments, missed deadlines and even lost business deals is even greater. As diversity in the workplace grows, having a linguistic and cultural understanding of those around us is increasingly vital to our career or corporate success. In response to this growing need Wiseplanet provides the resources to prepare you or your employees to successfully meet the requirements of understanding the cultures with whom you are working or doing business. We offer a variety of services from onsite language and accent modification courses, to relocation briefings and cultural diversity training. Whether you are a newcomer to the United States or an American interacting with foreign nationals, our tailor-made programs give you the skills you need to succeed in a complex international world.
