Our customized intercultural business training programs are typically conducted for workgroups, and generally fall into the following three categories:

	Programs for Americans/Western business people about Japanese, Chinese, and Asian business and communication
	Programs for Asian business people about working effectively with Americans (conducted in either Japanese or English)
	Multi-cultural team building programs

We also engage participants in developing effective communication skills for the daily challenges they face in the multicultural business arena: problem solving across cultures, meeting management, organizational development issues, and more.
