Practical tips for efficient intercultural collaboration

Intercultural training Malaysia: the basis for international business success

Intercultural training in Malaysia is a decisive factor for your business success on the equator. The resource-rich “Tiger State” has achieved impressive growth thanks to a clever economic policy and has established itself as an interesting location for investors. In contrast to other peoples in the region, such as the Chinese, Vietnamese and Thais, the customs, traditions and mentality of the Malays are rather unknown in this country. Thanks to practice-oriented intercultural training and the holistic approach, which includes intercultural training, intercultural coaching and intercultural consulting, Global Cultures contributes to the success of your business activities there. Through significantly higher efficiency and employee motivation, you will be able to conduct your business faster and more smoothly.
