Our Happy Client’s Testimonials:
“With the training provided by Cross-Cultural Biz at the outset of the most recent training program, I was amazed at how much more confident our delegates were. The participants developed a cultural awareness, an ability to communicate effectively, and gained confidence in the academic settings that they were being trained in. It was marvelous to experience this turnaround so quickly. Definitely a key aspect to our future long term training programs!”
Maire O, Ph.D., former Director, Training Division, York University, Canada; current Co-Director, International Leadership and Management Institute, Florida Atlantic University
“Along with my colleagues here at Scotia Bank, I was privileged to attend a training session on cross-cultural awareness facilitated by Kathy of Cross-Cultural Biz. The session was informative as it was exciting. Kathy shared her wealth of practical experience through life stories to help participants understand how cross cultural awareness impacts business across different jurisdictions. I particularly enjoyed her use of role-play and active Q&A strategies to engage participants making the session a true learning experience for everyone. Kathy is a true expert in this area.”
