Organizations work across cultures and often they experience disappointing results. Why? Because cultural differences see to get in the way.
Keys to achieving your business objectives in the complex, global marketplace are first, the ability to construct a shared vision and second, to lead in a way that enables people to fully support change.
International Advantage® enables more effective integration of ideas and vision across cultures. We equip leaders of global and culturally diverse organizations to increase their capacity to navigate change amid widely differing world views.
Since 1992, we have contributed to the success of companies such as Honeywell International, Heifer International, Molex Inc. and Pulte Homes.

"[We] needed Spanish-fluent consultants who were comfortable traveling to Latin America to conduct critical organizational and process-oriented interviews for one of our premier clients. Lisa's superb interpersonal and cross-cultural skills allowed her to quickly master the performance and morale challenges facing the client's Latin American division...She proved very effective in working seamlessly as part of our core team...Lisa's contribution garnered specific praise from the client, who has asked that she be included in the follow-up.
"Lisa is very quick on her feet, has great facilitation skills, and is a strong team player who is always looking for winning solutions for the client."
