was at an Internet agency, where she got her first taste of culture
shock with regard to office life.
Since 2002, she has worked as a trainer and coach for professionals in
the areas of Intercultural Management, Presentation Techniques, Conflict Management and Business
English
for professionals. She has worked with people from many industries,
most especially from the IT, Automobile, Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical
and Chemical sectors. Additionally, she is on the adjunct faculty of
the University of Applied Sciences in Ludwigshafen on the Rhine in the
School of Intenational Business Administration. She also blogs
regularly at Intercultural
Reflections.
The focus of our Intercultural
Trainings
is the U.S.A. The seminar sensitizes participants to both the obvious
and the underlying differences between the two countries, our
culturally-driven expectations and the differences in business
etiquette. Participants learn to circumnavigate common problems, to
conduct successful negotiations, to present convincingly to an American
audience and to get off on the right foot for long-term assignments in
the U.S.A.
