Trust-Building when Contracting Internationally July 12, 2012

Trust is the easiest thing to lose in international business. We must constantly work to build and maintain trust in every situation. When contracting with a new international client, we want to share our services in ways that build their trust in our competence and integrity. These are highly valued in all cultures, but the behaviours can vary so significantly that miscues foil the business relationship prematurely.

Please join us for our July dinner meeting with speaker, Marian Steton-Rodriguez of Charis Intercultural Training Corporation, who has worked with global high-tech companies in 62 countries.

In this session, you'll learn:

*How to shape your approach when contracting with international clients
*The role of trust in intercultural business relationships and how trust is built during such interactions
*Keys that lead to multi-year projects
*10 International Trust Criteria

Attendees will do a brief exercise to see how they prioritize the International 10 Trust Criteria and contrast their results to sample countries of China, Germany and Israel.
