Outsourcing & Offshoring - High Stakes
& Big Investment
India has become the offshore outsourcing capital of the world. In the current wave of global economic change, location in India of information technology, business process or other value chain activities or services is not an option any more, but a strategic reality.
The importance of differences in national and organizational cultures in offshore IT development initiatives is often underestimated. Many companies have ventured into India without recognizing the criticality of these differences for creating unified and effective cross-cultural teams of its IT professionals.
However, without a proper understanding, intercultural differences between team members based in India and the United States and other parts of the world can lead to numerous areas of difficulty, frustration and reduced productivity.
A recent high profile example is Microsoft's
"8 pixels" problem.
India cultural training can no longer be considered just “nice to have.” The stakes are too high and many companies are investing heavily in outsourcing & offshoring projects.
Developing global cultural competency is one of the most challenging aspects of working globally. Managing the myriad work and management styles that companies face across geographies, businesses, functions and projects can be daunting. What is effective in one culture may be ineffective, or even inappropriate, in other cultures. In addition, multicultural diversity at home is now the rule, rather than the exception.

Cultural Savvy's Indian Business Cultural Programs

From
Information to Understanding
Research conducted by leading outsourcing organizations has shown that one of the biggest barriers in a fully successful business relationship with India companies is the cultural difference between the Indians and others.
Our experience from training a number of US-based companies shows that some of the most significant differences occur in areas of Indian communication patterns and management style. These problems in turn create bottlenecks for a productive and meaningful business relationship and adversely affect the bottom line.
Recognizing the above problems, Cultural Savvy has helped several enlightened Western companies by providing India-related executive briefings and coaching for their senior management, and orientation and training programs for the other key employees.
Cultural Savvy’s India Programs are designed, customized and delivered by highly qualified multicultural experts of Indian origin who
have practical experience of working in both in India and the West. We focus on providing a meaningful business cultural awareness of India and practical ways of converting that knowledge into successful business applications.
