Understanding the Dutch
International employees working in the Netherlands
Your first experiences with the Dutch culture may confront you with some puzzling paradoxes. Be successful but don’t show it. Everybody is equal but people celebrate the monarchy. Be direct but make everybody feel appreciated. By participating in this training, you will enhance your cultural awareness and strengthen the intercultural competencies that you need to succeed in the Dutch business culture and to deal with the social aspects of life.

Design and delivery of post-merger integration programmes
IBI designed and delivered four integration programmes. In the first programme, we combined training, competence assessment and coaching with bi-annual networking events for over 180 managers from all levels of the organisation. For three days in a row, managers of all backgrounds and degrees of experience learned together, networking and helping each other across country and company boundaries. The program was so successful that we were immediately asked to design and deliver three additional integration programs.
