Cross-Cultural Training for Japanese

The differences between Latin American and Japanese business cultures and work styles are significant, and can prove challenging for Japanese who are working in Latin America. Companies can help Japanese expatriates increase their effectiveness by providing them with training that enables them to better understand the Latin American environment.

All our training programs for Japanese are presented in Japanese, with bilingual participant materials. Our unique training sessions, the result of intensive development work over the past decade, present information about Latin American culture and business practices in a way that resonates with Japanese audiences.

Working Effectively with Latin American Colleagues

Latin American business cultures are unique and not always well-understood by Japanese, yet it is important to be familiar with them in order to succeed when working with Latin Americans. Recently, many of our clients have expanded their operations in Mexico and other Latin American countries, which requires staff based in the U.S. and Canada to interact closely with colleagues in Latin America and also leads to Japanese being assigned to work in Latin American countries. This course provides insight into specific Latin American cultures that is essential for establishing productive working relationships. As part of the course, we compare and contrast Latin American and U.S. cultures.
