Intercultural Consulting

Intercultural appreciation is a decisive factor for anyone who works internationally, expands into new markets or sends employees abroad – and at the same time is serious about the frequently invoked partnerships of equals. However, our experience shows that this dimension often receives too little attention in project development. The consequences can be manifold: misunderstandings, “friction losses”, inefficient and paralyzing silo thinking or even unnecessary costs and delays in the operational area. We support you in successfully integrating intercultural values and sustainability into your projects.

Analysis

Together, we identify needs, opportunities, challenges and fields of action for successful intercultural cooperation. We sensitize executives and teams to cultural dynamics so that they can make informed decisions and make use of synergies in a very concrete way.

Strategy

We work with you to develop leadership strategies that use cultural diversity as a strength: an important factor for a trusting stakeholder dialog (especially when it comes to taking cultural specifics into account locally).

Development of intercultural teams

We support you in building and developing your intercultural teams – so that they work together efficiently, harmoniously and successfully. We solve culturally-based tensions in a practice-oriented way through cross-cultural conflict management, mediation and moderation. As in all other areas of our portfolio, our experienced partners in our network are there for you.

At pineapple, we connect intercultural issues with the entire portfolio. We take a holistic view of intercultural topics – in the context of your overall strategy. And we want you to have measurable results at the end. This way, you can continuously increase your impact and transparently document your success.
