Some highlights of the year

2021 was sort of hybrid year with an unexpected mix where on-line sessions were run as well as traditional presential seminars. The compromise was all in all pretty effective and it was a very pleasant surprise to realize that the dynamics of the Bridges sessions can be maintained despite the distance. 

Sonepar on-line
Paris, Philadelphia, Shanghai, 2021, May-June

The module “Intercultural knowledge” we have been running for 15 years now took place this year virtually. Thanks to a very precise and effective preparation of our customers the results of the 9 seminars exceeded our expectations and the objectives of the training reached: mastering cultural differences, fostering co-operation, developing team spirit. Our fear to lose the dynamics and the momentum was fortunately not justified!  

Cross-cultural communication for procurement experts
Bonn, Paris, 2021, April-September

11 years after the creation of Buyin, a procurement joint-venture between Deutsche Telekom and Orange we continue to support Management team and employees of both countries and sites. After a one year break due to the pandemic we restarted the “Bridge” sessions with the same objectives: mastering cultural differences and improving concrete day-to-day collaboration and cooperation spirit. 

On the road again…with Mobivia
Villeneuve d’Ascq-Weiden, May-October 2021

After one and a half year break cross-cultural sessions were run again for Mobivia, Europe’s largest independent automotive maintenance and repair services group. On the agenda: checking the status of co-operation, reinforcing bonding and trust, facilitating and acceleration the cultural integration. These workshops for IT and Supply Chain managers are also meant as a forum to reflect, to share and to concretely prepare the future.
