A cross-cultural Christmas – thanks to the spirit of flexibility, respect and tolerance Jan,14,2010

I have just spent a most enjoyable Christmas and New Year with my extended family in the Canary Islands – Spanish speaking Lanzarote. 

My extended family are Dutch-speaking Surinamese, with a Portuguese son-in-law. Having travelled via. French-speaking Brussels we realised that we had juggled 5 different languages during the 12-day break – 6 if you count the Surinamese dialect.
Not only this, we all got on brilliantly and there was a spirit of flexibility, respect and tolerance in the air – factors that are attributed by Worldwork™ to successful competencies for international relations. 
For more about the international profiler (TIP) please go to http://www.worldwork.biz or give us a call. I am a licensed practitioner of TIP and use it in combination with my coaching.
Have a great multi-cultural 2010
