講師： パニラ・ラドリン ヨーロッパ 代表
日本人と一緒に働いているヨーロッパ人の多くの方々は、母国と異なる日本の独特な文化、習慣、企業風土などに戸惑いがちです。その結果として、ストレスを感じ、一緒に働いている日本人との関係がスムーズに行かない場合が生じます。この様なストレスは、仕事の効率や効果を下げるだけではなく、職場での調和や協調性を乱す原因にもなりかねません。
そのために「異文化ストレス」の対策として、今回のセミナーを計画いたしました。日本人の考え方や働き方を文化的側面からより良く知ることで、参加者の理解を深め、職場における人間関係の向上を奨励するものです。
日本のビジネス習慣と社会意識について、分かりやすく説明できる幅広い経験と知識を持つ専門家が、このセミナーでヨーロッパ人の質問にお答えします。日本式コミュニケーションのスタイル、言葉の壁を乗り越えるテクニック、日本企業における意思決定のプロセス、そして日本人との会議を効果的に運営する方法などのトピックが網羅されています。
ぜひ、一緒に働いているヨーロッパ人の皆様方に、この機会をお薦め下さいますよう、お願い申し上げます。
