CROSS-CULTURAL CONSULTING AND MULTILINGUAL SUPPORT |
|
|
With nearly thirty years' experience in cross-cultural training, The Boston
Language Institute has developed numerous programs designed to meet the
unique needs of each client, from government agencies looking to establish
stronger international connections to Fortune 500 companies seeking to
enhance the working relationship with their subsidiaries. Programs have also
been developed specifically for individuals, including cross-cultural coaching
for senior executives and foreign-born professionals. All programs, whether
small or large in scale, are designed in close consultation with you, the client,
to provide training tailored to your specific requirements. |

In a legal setting, having expert knowledge of the cultures and backgrounds
of those involved in a case can be instrumental in developing a successful
strategy for a deposition or trial. Without this understanding, the potential
for miscommunication is far greater, which could seriously affect a case's
outcome. Incorrect assumptions regarding a client's background can cause
major problems during a deposition or in court, when securing the right
testimony is critical to winning a case. |
