Today
our work environment has changed from local to
international. This has thrown up challenges like
dealing with people from diverse countries and corporate
cultures, socializing with and entertaining foreign
clients, handling customers from various corners of the
world. This requires increasing levels of social skills
and business etiquette and an awareness of cultivating
the right image according to different countries &
cultures.
The
popular belief is that if one is only an image, our
quality as a person, our ability and intelligence are
being disregarded. The truth is that to everyone other
than family/friend and colleagues we are only an image.
Hence, we should be in control of our image and adjust
it such as to use it to our advantage.
This
programme prepares managers to deal successfully in a
global environment. It gives them the know-how to manage
their appearance, their interactions with others and at
the same time be effective with people by cultivating
respect and appreciation for
others.
