Expatriate Programs

IOR’s expatriate programs are designed to help employees and families adapt quickly to the new environment in the host country and perform effectively in their business and personal lives in an interculturally sensitive and competent fashion. Programs are typically one or two days in length, conducted for individuals, families with children and groups. Session resources include a representative of the destination country with expertise in destination values and behaviors, business practices, area studies, and daily living practicalities.

Through these programs participants will:

• Gain better understanding of the destination culture's values and their impact on the performance of professional and social functions
  
  
• Learn useful tools for managing the intercultural adaptation process in the participants' personal and professional lives
  
  
• Increase practical knowledge and tips on daily life in the destination culture
  
  
• Gain deeper insight into the destination culture's communication styles
  
  
• Develop personal and professional strategies for achieving greater effectiveness and satisfaction during the assignment.

Our custom-tailored Expatriate Programs reduce stress, broaden global vision and facilitate the adaptation process, accelerating productivity.
