Intercultural workshop

"Whoever says human, says language and whoever says language, says society"
Levi Strauss

Knowing the Dutch language is important when living in the Netherlands, but knowing about cultural aspects is crucial as well. The Dutch have this flat organisation structure which they call "polder model": how can you deal with this? It's also important that you are assertive, which means that you literally ask for the things that you need. This is probably quite different in the country where you come from. How are you going to be brave enough to do all these things?


A lot things in Dutch are said in a different way than you are used to in your own language. If you want to achieve things - like a satisfying job or good contacts - you have to do them the Dutch way. Many foreigners have become very good at it, so you can do it too. In the training you will see HOW to achieve success in this country.

Why is it that you aren't succesful enough, even if you know quite well Dutch? A lot things in Dutch are said in a different way than you are used to in your own language. If you want to achieve things - like a good job, or nice contacts - you have to do them the Dutch way. Many foreigners have become very good at it, so you can do it too. In the training you will see HOW to achieve success in this country.

If you know how it works in the Netherlands, you can create your life as you want it to be. Language coach Sophia Berkati will help you know the language very well and understand the Dutch people. That's how you're going to experience success: you'll earn more because you'll know how to get things done, you'll have a better network and you'll feel comfortable.
