When becoming an executive in a company, one is often trained in all sorts of technical matters relating to the company's industry or to the financial controls within the company.

A lucky few are even assisted with HR-related courses (how to negotiate your next round of salary reviews, etc).

Very few executives ever get trained in how to handle cross-cultural and multilingual issues in the workplace:

• When coming from France or Germany, how do you manage a multicultural industrial workforce in Melbourne?
• Has a long career in Tokyo prepared you adequately to the way business is done in Sydney?
• Now that the company has signed a large tender with the Australian government, you become the CEO of the new JV.

Are you ready to handle a local political situation you know little about, as well as the demands of your JV-partner?

• Your company has recently bought a factory in China. What should you expect in your daily dealings? How do you handle the communication issues?

Polyglot has confidentially assisted numerous foreign executives upon their arrival in Australia, as well as Australian executives who were taking a posting overseas.

We can help you do your work better.

The effectiveness of coaching has a lot to do with compatible personalities, so we first meet for an obligation-free discussion, and decide together whether our coaching will be the most effective for you.
