Business Insights provides members with an engaging setting in which to network, learn and discover potential procurement opportunities. Take advantage of this platform to make business connections and learn from a brief interactive and educational workshop.
Broaden Your Global Awareness
Is it permissible to use the 'okay' sign to silently signal a co-worker during an intercultural meeting? As a woman, how do you greet a Muslim man - is it appropriate to shake hands? These and other potentially sticky situations will be discussed. Broadening your global awareness in an international marketplace when communicating, negotiating and socializing is crucial today. This interactive introduction to cultural awareness will increase your comfort level in these situations. The highlights will include:
- Global Business Introductions
- International Eye Signals
- Gestures to Avoid
- Professional Handshakes
