Preparing for International Assignments

As companies staff global markets, they are tasked with selecting the best managers for the assignments. Knowing what to look for during the selection process and preparing managers for global deployment means the right people will be prepared for what they will find on arrival.

Ingredients that assist in this process include an assessment of leadership potential and intercultural competence and an assessment of managers’ ability to adjust to change and intercultural differences.

The Global Leadership workshop looks at how to prepare managers for global deployment. The workshop discusses intercultural competence and how those with a clearer understanding of their own cultural awareness will have a greater chance of success when interacting in international assignments.
