Berlitz Cultural Assimilation Programs —  Empowering personnel with global competence

Berlitz Civilian and Military Cultural Assimilation Seminars provide practical aspects of day-to-day life during foreign assignments and deployment. Our programs are designed to benefit civilian and military personnel by providing tools and hands on training for an effective overseas assignment or deployment, and addressing a full range of skills and perspectives that support an individual’s ability to work within an intercultural environment.

Program topics include:

  • Etiquette and protocal
  • History, government, and societal overview, and how these influence current daily perspective
  • Values that apply to leadership functions and social interactions
  • Intercultural communication skills such as formal and informal networking, subordinate/boss relationships and strategies for the Cultural Adjustment Process

In addition, programs are available for personnel’s spouses and children.

Why choose Berlitz?

The Berlitz Cultural Consulting approach addresses three components— Civilian and Military Culture, National Culture and the Individual Perspective—that impact global personnel effectiveness when conducting international assignments or deployments. Our programs develop culturally competent personnel through the use of effective strategies to navigate the interplay between these components. Equipped with globally dynamic skills and cross-cultural insight, assignees can focus on realizing an organization's international goals as soon as they arrive in their new destination.
