Cross Cultural & Business Consultancy FOR EMPLOYERS:

Cross Cultural & Business Consultancy FOR EMPLOYERS:

Too many corporate relocations fail because the employee and/or their family fail to settle in their new host country. It seems that countries with similar cultures such as Canada, the US and the UK should be more successful in transferring their employees between them. In fact, this perception often leaves the transferees ill prepared for their new life abroad.

Hineni Media Cross cultural have delivered programmes for professionals working in many locations around the world. We recognise that organisations have their own interests, priorities and expectations for their valued executives, in whom they are investing substantial time and money. Hineni Media works with you to determine what your programme requirements are each time you identify a new opportunity for your employees. We also work with your enployee's spouse or partner's concerns, including cultural, practical and advice on managing their separate career requirements.

FOR EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES:

Are you already in the DR? Do you suddenly feel very far away from home? Many people who relocate find that, after an initial honeymoon period, they can feel very frustrated by the simplest of differences between how things work in the DR and what you took for granted in Canada. Your employer has invested substantial time and money in your new assignment, placing great pressure on you to succeed. But that's little consolation if your children aren't happy at school, your spouse hasn't made friends and can't negotiate the motorways, and you don't understand everyday business references that your colleagues seem to use anytime you are nearby.

Hineni Media are available to help you unravel these challenges, giving you the foundations for building a successful life in the DR, whether you are here for a short term assignment or you are thinking of settling in the DR permanently. We work with you, tailoring our programmes to your specific requirements.

THE PROGRAMMES:

Hineni Media will deliver programmes at a venue of your choice - it can be your office, your new home, or at a designated hotel or conference centre. Most people benefit from a full day with us, although we can offer programmes of shorter and longer duration. We can deliver your programme at a time that's convenient for you.
