KEYNOTe PRogrammes


IT TOPICS in Business
​

Picture
​Nowadays, business is about technology. Yet few business professionals have a strong technical background. Even tech professionals don’t understand every emerging trend. Managers in all functional areas of a company -- from marketing and HR to finance and customer service -- need to understand more about IT. How can it transform the products your company offers? What threats does it pose to your operations and customers? How can it allow you to do everything you do better?
 
In these keynotes, Mel uses his unique combination of skills as a seasoned tech expert and entertaining speaker to break down hard-to-understand concepts for a general business audience in a humourous way. Participants come away smarter and enlightened to new possibilities. It’s infotainment at its best!

CROSS CulTURAL Differences
​

Picture
We all work and interact with people of different nationalities. But often, miscommunication over big and small problems turns into huge crises. All due to a lack of intercultural awareness. In this keynote address, employees learn that misconceptions, prejudices and stereotypes obstruct natural, logical dialogue. They’ll learn that cross-cultural differences are inevitable but being aware of rules and expected behaviours can break down barriers. 


Understanding Germany
​

Picture
Understanding the German business mentality can be a challenge or a complete mystery to an Ausländer (foreigner). German culture is different in so many ways -- lifestyle, values, communication styles and business sense.
This witty, insightful presentation explains the cultural differences and communication issues between “your people” and the Germans they need to interact with on a daily basis.
