The Benelux Chamber of Commerce in China, the French Chamber of Commerce, Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Spanish Chamber of Commerce are delighted to invite you to a Training on April 22 2011:
To your key audiences, your employees are your organisation. It is the reason why the image they project is so important.
Manners have a direct impact on one's image. Each culture has its own social and business codes, so in today's increasingly global society, the chances of saying or doing the wrong thing are greater than ever before, as well as the chances of misunderstanding someone else's behaviour.
