With German culture training you can work more effectively with your German colleagues
Are you involved in a regular working collaboration with German nationals and companies? Your mutual understanding could be enhanced greatly by German cultural training. Germany is the 3rd largest economy in the world and UK’s largest European export market, second only to the US. Britain sells most products to Germany and all major UK companies have subsidiaries there. In spite of their own manufacturing base 82 million Germans offer big potential for quality imported goods. A German cultural briefing can tell you more…
Germany and the UK – similar but different
The UK and Germany are geographically close and often classified together as Northern European. In spite of shared cultural characteristics there are some significant differences. German business culture is very formal. Professionalism and qualifications are highly valued. Use of surnames and titles is strictly observed. German attitudes to time and communication are also very particular. An appreciation of these cross-cultural issues – of what makes our German colleagues tick – can be crucial to successful long-term relationships.
