Goals

Today, more than ever, we act internationally, are globally networked and influence each other interculturally. These situations enrich and broaden horizons, but at the same time can be challenging, confusing and complex. When you work with people from other cultural backgrounds, uncertainties, confusions, misunderstandings or even annoyances sometimes arise because your foreign partners think and act differently due to their culture. As an Example, German managers tend to perceive their Chinese project team members as passive and disinterested. European salespeople or buyers often do not know how to negotiate successfully with Asian partners with the tact required. The flow of information in an international project can often be stagnating and intransparent and it is usually challenging to motivate participants from other cultural backgrounds …

But this does not have to be the case! I support you in developing your intercultural competence and achieving your goals faster.

 

8 main goals I support you with

Building trust:
Build trust more consciously and maintain long term cooperation.

Communication:
Communicate in engaging ways and work together more effectively.

 

Team Management:
Lead international teams successfully as well as sustainably and strengthen the team spirit.

Conflict resolution:
Avoid conflicts up front or resolve them constructively

Costs:
Achieve more synergy and save costs.

 

Negotiation:
Conduct skillful negotiations and run your business more successfully

Project work:
Lead and complete international projects with more success.

Competitive advantages:
Generate a greater turnover and secure competitive advantages

I have worked together with Ke Rao during intercultural training preparation for China. It was a very good experience working with her and I learned a lot as well as got very well preparation for my time in China and Asia. She has a very open way for her training and adpated her time schedule to answer questions. I would recommend her any time for your Intercultural Trainings.

When I came to Germany for the first time in July 2018, Ms Rao conducted a preparation abroad training Germany for me, my wife and my two daughters. I was very satisfied with the following 3 aspects: 1. Clear introduction with exercises as well as pictures, 2. Comparison of cultural differences between China and Germany in terms of economy, culture, beliefs, values and diversity of lifestyles, 3. Communication before the training and after the training was very well done. I found it extremely helpful and still vividly remember the scenes of the training even after these years. I highly recommend Ms Rao’s trainings!

Ms Rao has a long-standing cooperation with SieMatic Möbelwerke, which has lasted from 2008 until today. She works for us as an intercultural consultant and trainer. In addition to her absolute reliability, what I appreciate about Ms Rao is her extremely sensitive and flexible manner, which makes it possible to create mutual understanding between the German and Chinese cultures even in the case of challenging issues. For these reasons, I consider Ms Rao particularly suitable to accompany even complex projects between German and Chinese companies and would therefore recommend her to potential clients without reservation.
