Practical tips for efficient intercultural collaboration

Intercultural training Norway

Intercultural training Norway: The land of fjords and trolls offers breathtaking natural beauty. Once considered a poorhouse on the northern edge of Europe, Norway is now one of the largest oil exporters and so wealthy that the sparsely populated country can even afford not to join the EU. Norwegian companies now play an important role in the global energy business. However, the mentality is still characterized by nature and the welfare state that the Norwegians established in the 1970s. It is not easy to navigate larger ships through the fjords. Global Cultures supports you in ensuring that your “business ship” reaches its destination safely and successfully.

Norway, Norway, No Way?

The enormous size of the country, its sparse population with few centers, its harsh climate and its past as a pawn of stronger powers have shaped the Norwegian mentality. However, Norwegian society is not only characterized by capitalist ideas, but also by the welfare state and community spirit. Intercultural training in Norway with Global Cultures provides you with the necessary intercultural knowledge to successfully implement your business strategy in the land of the midnight sun.

Increase intercultural competence

When working with business partners from Norway, employees are often faced with unexpected problems. In most cases, cooperation does not suffer from a lack of commitment or expertise, but from a lack of preparation through intercultural training Norway. Numerous studies have shown that intercultural preparation is the key factor in almost all projects around the world. Especially when it comes to neighboring countries that seem very familiar on the surface.

How do you benefit sustainably from intercultural competence?

Building awareness and trust in the Norwegian business

Intercultural training Norway enables you to create awareness of your own culture, your own management style and attitude to working with Norwegian colleagues and business partners. This will enable you to build cooperation based on mutual trust.

Success through targeted communication

In a Norway intercultural training course, you will learn how to communicate most efficiently with the Norwegians, as they call themselves, and how to significantly increase your success rates. You will also significantly improve employee motivation and loyalty. As a result, there will be fewer misunderstandings in communication and you will develop a deeper understanding of the mentality of Swedish colleagues and business partners.

A clear lead over the competition – outpace the competition with intercultural competence

Intercultural training in Norway enables you to gain a noticeable advantage over your competitors. As a result, you can benefit from the intercultural competence you gain in the long term, both in business and personally in other international projects.
