Cultural Issues
GABE guides the expatriate in regards to cultural matters to make his / her quick adaptation easier.
Research shows that in international transfers Foreigners or Brazilians who do not participate in a training of cultural adaptation often end their assignment in the country with their performances below the company’s expectations.
The main reasons for low performances are the personal or family difficulties and the dissatisfaction with the job or co-workers. These factors are called cultural shock and are minimized when the expatriate participates in an appropriate cultural training.
The language is one of the greatest barriers that the expatriated and his family must overcome. To make the transfer smoother, we can guide/ offer courses taught by renowned language schools. The program is structured in a personalized way, to better meet the needs of each person.
Being an item of extreme importance for the transferee, we work in partnership with a company specialized in this area. Through seminars involving the whole family, some basic security notions are given which helps eliminating or mitigating the risks to which all are subjected on a daily basis. In addition, various techniques are taught to face a real risk.
Often the spouse abandons his/ her career or studies to follow his/ her spouse. To keep himself/ herself up to date until retuning to the origin country, we offer them orientation about the best courses offered in the market, as well as, we indicate renowned and specialized companies in headhunting, assessments, coaching etc.
In addition, we can guide them about volunteer services, NGO's or schools of manual/ artistic activities, music/ choir groups etc.
