Cultural differences can have a significant impact on teamwork. Different cultures may prefer different communication styles, such as direct, indirect, expressive, or more evasive. This may lead to differences in the interpretation of messages. Gestures, tone of voice, and words used can have different meanings in different cultures. Something that is acceptable in one culture may be offensive in another. Different cultures may have different approaches to hierarchy in the workplace. Some cultures may be more hierarchical, where decisions are made by people higher up in the hierarchy. Cultures differ in their approach to working time and deadlines. Some cultures may value punctuality more, while others may be more flexible. Different cultures may have different approaches to conflict. Some cultures may avoid confrontation, while others may prefer open conflict resolution. In some cultures, decisions are made after consultation and team discussions, while in others decisions are made by a single leader. Different cultures have different perceptions and approaches to diversity. It is important to build awareness and respect for cultural differences in the workplace. In teamwork, it is crucial to understand and respect cultural differences. Building an atmosphere of open communication, respect and flexibility in accepting diversity can help manage cultural differences and create an effective work environment. This also opens the door to benefiting from diversity through diverse perspectives and ideas.

Overview:

There are misconceptions that Human Factors (HF) is a discipline which is only applicable to safety critical industries like aviation, medicine and the oil & gas sectors. In fact, there are tangible benefits to investing in HF beyond improving safety.

Improved Operational Efficiency: Giving a team the tools to allow them to manage workload, problem solve and make effective decisions equips them with the ability to handle work-related difficulties without the need for higher level intervention. Regardless of the setting, front line team members are able to handle complex, dynamic situations.

Enhanced Employee Engagement and Brand Reputation: Empowering team members to manage work situations increases employee engagement and improves customer interactions. An organisation that can demonstrate a commitment to improve and invest in its staff will reap the benefits of increased job satisfaction.

Reduced Absenteeism, Increased Retention: Time off work due to stress and fatigue can be partly addressed through HF training. But workplace morale is undoubtedly going to affect individual stress levels. Investment in a combination of stress & fatigue management training and introducing peer support programmes demonstrates a commitment to employee well-being that Deloitte suggests will result in a 500% return in reduced absenteeism and improved retention.

In summary, the same skills that help pilots, surgeons and oil rig drillers can be applied far more frequently to benefit an organisation beyond safety.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

Program Overview

As the target group is middle and senior management, they are certain to have experience in negotiation. Our aim is to develop more complex approaches that will allow us to become more effective negotiators. This course will build on the knowledge that participants already have to develop them further as stronger and more experienced negotiators.

The win-win approach focuses on finding ways to help both sides feel successful, rather than just focusing on getting what we want. This methodology helps to form long-term relationships and partnerships – with clients, suppliers and within our own organization - and creates a positive basis for future negotiations. There is no point crushing the other party in a negotiation only to find that you need to work with this organization again. The result of such a scenario is that future business will be difficult to secure.

We want to enable senior management to use their own strengths and personal experiences, further develop their natural skills, and to use a framework that really works. You will learn to approach every negotiation with a plan and the knowledge and confidence that you will be able to achieve your goals. The course is very interactive and engaging and you will learn negotiation from some of the best business schools in the world.
