“Incredible India” is the slogan of an Indian government tourism campaign that hits the nail right on the head. With its diversity, its size, its growth in recent decades, and, not least, its rich cultural heritage, the country exerts an incredible fascination. Working with India, however, often poses challenges – particularly for Western companies. The combination of traditionally hierarchical work structures and a strong desire among the (often still young) workforce to make progress raises particular issues when working with them – as you will discuss with our Berlitz intercultural experts in this course. Our seminar covers topics such as hierarchy, business etiquette, negotiation methods, communicating with Indian colleagues and supervisors, and overcoming stereotypes and biases.
