Talent Acquisition & Development in Greater China and South East Asia
We assist you to enhance your individual and team competences in the complex intercultural environment of foreign companies in China. We also design and deliver tailor-made soft skills development solutions.

Hiring, developing, delegating, motivating, team building and problem solving are much easier if you have good soft skills. Getting along with people and displaying a positive attitude are skills crucial for success.
Organizations tend to assume that employees know how to behave on the job and expect people to understand the importance of being on time, taking initiative, producing high quality work, etc. But assuming that soft skills are universal leads to much frustration, especially in the cross-cultural context of foreign companies in China.
The Chinese education system has succeeded in developing technical knowledge and hard skills yet companies increasingly need middle managers, with analytical and creative skills, fluency in cross-cultural team management; good communicators able to motivate their team members through effective impact and influencing skills.
