Issue
Clinics
"Issue Clinics" are workshops
that combine elements of training and "community of practice."
They are practitioner forums that give participants an opportunity
to flag their own real-life challenges in the topic-area, and get
advice and inspiration from participating peers. Issue Clinic topics
are business-driven and usually evolve from requests we get from
clients and our business network. Participants are experienced practitioners
- usually business and HR leaders with several years of experience.
If you are interested in attending
or sponsoring an issue clinic, please contact us.

Global Cafes
A "Global Café" is a forum to exchange best practices and develop new ideas among business leaders and HR business partners. We provide a brief, informative introduction to the topic, then facilitate a dialogue among the participants to explore the special challenges of the “soft side” of going global, e.g,:
- the global leadership challenge,
- global diversity,
- corporate culture,
- knowledge management across frontiers,
- global business ethics
The forum is strategic and targeted to experienced professionals. It is more about opening the exploration of the right questions than finding all the answers.
Nevertheless, we also work on pragmatic – new – solutions in our best-practice exchange, and core questions left open in one Global Café might become the topics of later events in the series. The agenda is flexible and very much influenced by the participants.
We hope that these events will trigger an ongoing exchange and mutual inspiration among participants, even between events.
