Management between cultures

Understanding between different cultures can lead to misunderstandings and conflicts. But how does building binational relationships on the individual level work with curiosity? How can the potentials of multicultural teams be used in leadership and cooperation? This keynote creates added value for the individuals, the teams and the company. As a Brazilian and a naturalised Swiss with over 25 years of experience and study background in Brazil, Vienna and Switzerland, research work in Bosnia and lecture work in the USA, I have the scientific background and the practical tools in equal measure. I bring stories from everyday intercultural professional life that touch, inspire and sensitise.

The path from crisis to communication

In a crisis situation, establishing and maintaining communication skills is the key strategic tool for improving future potential. Why do common theories and models fail in practice? How can the communication relationship communicator / recipient be transformed into a dialogue, between management and employees, the organisation and customers/stakeholders, but also in relation to the media? In this keynote, I will use use cases from various industries to illustrate how crisis can be prevented, potential can be used and trust can be strengthened during change processes.
