Welcome! We have designed the LTI website to provide you with useful information to help you when working and living in multi-cultural situations. We provide a range of services directed at improving competitiveness in business, enhanced service levels in public administration, and community cohesion. “It is essential for people in business to understand cultural differences” (Financial Times). Ireland in the 21st Century is a dynamic economy and an increasingly cosmopolitan society as is evident from the population and trade figures shown here.
Ireland’s success in attracting substantial foreign direct investment in manufacturing and internationally traded services has created an economy which exports 60 % of what it produces. International business, on a large scale, has presented challenges to Irish workers in both the private and public sectors. Dealing with a multi-cultural environment requires developing intercultural competencies to foster good business relationships with people be they colleagues, customers, clients or suppliers. In today’s global market, the chances of losing business due to cultural misunderstandings are high. Culture influences values, communication and how business is done by others. Hence, the necessity for sensitive cross-cultural training is paramount. Please explore the web site and contact us to see how we can provide meaningful responses to your needs.
