ITAP Can Help Your Organization…
• Assess the effectiveness of your recruitment, selection and
succession policies to insure that your talent pool is diverse and
matches the qualities and characteristics that will succeed in various
cultures
• Identify development needs - a gap analysis should address both
individual needs and the global talent pool so the organization can
leverage needs across large employee populations
• Design learning opportunities that match leaders' learning styles,
because these, too, differ across cultures
• Provide cross-cultural coaching for executives and leaders
working in a multi-cultural environment
• Assess cultural profiles
– to help leaders and employees with self-understanding, the first step to
appreciation of cultural differences
– to identify whether location cultures differ
