Description
By the end of this course you (and your kids) will be globally savvy individuals, able to adapt easier to ANY culture and handle culture shock with great insight, be an exceptional cross-cultural team member, cross-cultural communicator and cross-cultural relationship builder.
The honeymoon phase of immigration and expat life is soon over (I know you don’t believe me just yet), and we end up having to deal with depression, loneliness, isolation, homesickness, locals saying you should go back to your own country if you are so sad to be here, identity crises when having to adapt to local social values that contradict your own, struggling with eventually developing an “in-between” culture that doesn’t fit totally into your home country, nor fully into your host country (which can be especially hard for kids), etc. The locals handle authority differently, as well as communication, decision making, relationship building, punctuality and have a very different sense of humor.
Regardless of which culture or country you are from, and which country or culture you are moving to, this course will help you understand the host culture better, have more insight in how to communicate effectively in the host culture, and be more realistic about culture shock and prepare yourself for the emotional toll it will have on you and your family for quite a while until you have adapted abroad. Adapting into a new culture takes 18 – 24 months if it goes well. Make sure you fall into this category and prepare yourself and your family adequately for it. If you do it right, it will be the richest experience your family has ever gone through!
This course will help you gain better understanding of the following:
How do I successfully build a good understanding of Global Cross-Cultural Communication?
What are the different mainstream cultures, and what are the foundations of these cultures?
What are the phases I will go through when I decide to move abroad and set up home in a host culture?
What is culture shock, what should I expect when adapting abroad, and how can I make it easier on my family.
Third-Culture Kids – how are our kids affected when we move abroad, and how can we help them adapt well and cope with their losses of what they have had to leave behind?
What are the best ways to learn a foreign language?
Lots of practical examples based on real lived experience.
This course is packed with tips and crucial information for adapting well, from the moment you decide to move, to the moment you have successfully integrated into the host culture.
Apart from all the logistics of moving abroad, this will be the best tool you can get to prepare your for your family’s move abroad. Already moved? This course will still be immensely beneficial to you as you learn that you have not been losing your mind, but rather have been responding in normal ways to a big change in your life and lots of uncertainty and adapting.
