10 Recruiting Processes: The right person for the right job at the right time. All companies, especially those operating abroad, must confront the challenges of hiring staff. A well-selected and qualified workforce is critical to the success of your company. As our industries have become more complex, so have the requirements of personnel recruitment. Failure to plan and carry out due diligence can lead to costly risks for your operation. We optimize your personnel acquisitions by taking over the recruiting process and carrying out complete candidate administration in order to staff your business with the best and most qualified personnel.

11 HR Development: Learning is like rowing upstream, as soon as you stop you begin to drift backwards. We define personnel development as the targeted use of resources and responsibility in order to promote corporate growth through structured learning and positive reinforcement. Developing your employees skills and qualifications ensures that they will be able to meet the current and future demands of your business and cope with oncoming challenges. We will work with you to develop and implement personnel development strategies, and we will take over the unique training requirements of your business.

12 Intercultural Management: Developing actionable methods for the promotion of intercultural thinking. In order to truly understand each other, employees must do more than simply speak the same language. To meet the demands of our increasingly global economy, your company must acknowledge and celebrate the diverse cultural backgrounds that make up your workforce. Intercultural mediation helps to achieve higher levels of mutual respect and understanding, which in turn lead to different ways of thinking and acting. This process also helps to build up long-term relationships by paving the way for productive collaboration between employees of all backgrounds. In that way, intercultural mediation is truly the basis of a stable business relationship. We design customized intercultural programming to meet the needs of your company. Our instruction, materials, and strategies will help bring your employees closer together for the purpose of building a more effective workplace. Our intercultural management services include: Intercultural communication Intercultural mediation Development and administration of intercultural training and workshops Preparation for foreign assignment Translation services January 2018 page 12
