Viewpoint

Every activity involving art and skill, there is a great difference between the best trainers/coaches and mediocre ones.  Japanese business people and HR managers should seek out the best trainers/coaches wherever they are!

Knowledge

Acquisition of KNOWLEDGE of a foreign language is very different from the acquisition of ACTIVE COMMUNICATION SKILLS

Our Way - Kokusaika

Interworld’s Optimum Way to Internationalize (Kokusaika) for Business People in Japan

Vision

Rapid development of key communication skills in just a few hours very possible for most Japanese people with basic knowledge of English. We can have significant impact on your active international business skills in a single day.

Actual Communication

The only way to improve communication skills

  1. Aural comprehension - perhaps most difficult problem: techniques for understanding/mastering rhythm from both listening and speaking point of view are covered in seminar but email-based mp3 file transcription assignments are the optimum way to overcom this problem.
  1. Lack of confidence: one objective of seminar is to turn hesitant speakers into confident speakers.
  1. Embarrassing mistakes in speaking and writing: seminars will focus on identifying and helping you to avoid repeating as many as possible.
  1. Presentation skills: Japanese style presentation and international style ones are very different and key issues are addressed in our seminars regarding this critical skill.
  1. Social skiils: we address this common problem for Japanese in international business.
