Working with Dutch people can sometimes be confusing. Are they being rude, or just direct? What about the Dutch “flat hierarchy”, which sometimes appears to be not so flat at all? And how does the Dutch decision-making process (The Polder Model) work, when everyone is asked for their input and opinion in meetings?
Understanding how Dutch people communicate and behave is essential when working and living in the Netherlands. When you are more aware of your own communication style, and how you may come across to others, you can adapt and anticipate accordingly. This leads to more pleasant collaboration.
In this online training, we will discuss the differences in
communication styles between different cultures and the Dutch. On
top of that, we’ll break down how you can learn to adjust your
communication and presentation style to various cultural
settings.
We also offer this course as a group course for example a group of
colleagues. Please contact us for options and pricing.
