Today’s students will make a difference tomorrow

This is what drives me to also provide intercultural training at university level.

Many thanks to my lovely Master students from IAE Savoie Mont Blanc University for your commitment throughout our Intercultural Management sessions – face-to-face in February… and virtually now.

Is it possible to design sessions that are as interactive AND impactful as they would have been in the classroom - for long-lasting learning results?

YES.

My ingredients were: the willingness to provide qualitative, hands-on online-training (and not a web conference), creativity, up-front organization, precise communication and a passion for the topic. (PM me, dear colleagues – I am happy to share and hear about your adaptations).

Thank you, dear students, for making our virtual sessions such a positive experience, for your great questions and your positive and gratifying feedback. You will make a difference tomorrow.

Intercultural dialogue at its best. In Morocco.

I am filled with GRATITUDE - and would like to shout out a few THANKS for a powerful and inspiring work experience in the beautiful city of Fès in Morocco. This two-day training to leverage intercultural intelligence when working with Germans would not have been possible without you:

My curious, open-minded and warmhearted participants. I probably learned as much from you as you from me. It was such a pleasure!

Embrasser la collaboration - La suite

Embrasser la collaboration nécessite d'embrasser les différences.
Embrasser les différences nécessite de trouver les ponts et créer des synergies grâce à ces différences. C‘est au cœur de notre travail d‘accompagnement en tant que consultants et coachs.

Mais ce qui est valable pour nos clients l‘est aussi pour nous consultants. Me voilà dans la ville rose pour une nouvelle collaboration avec Cikaår

Ce qui nous anime : accompagner des équipes internationales avec une approche impactante et sur mesure. Let’s put our heads together, Claire Ivins!

Building bridges between coaches and interculturalists in Basel

Keeping the memory of the great joint event in Basel alive a little longer... The idea of this ICF and Sietar event was to build bridges between coaches and interculturalists and create a mutual learning experience. 
I am very pleased having delivered this workshop together with my colleague Veronica De la Fuente ACC ICF. Many thanks to our wonderful audience and the ICF Basel Team and Christiane Kosub, PCC for their warm welcome.

Intercultural Communication at Geneva Business School

It was a pleasure to kick off this month as visiting lecturer at the Geneva Business School. Together with a multicultural group at its best (with more than 15 languages represented), we filled the room with action, practical cases, some theory, valuable exchanges, debates and laughter to learn about the power of self-awareness and the driving forces in intercultural communication. Thank you Frode Hvaring for the invitation.
