WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WILL BRING TO THE CROSS CULTURAL CONSULTANTS NETWORK?
Shuttling between France and Brazil, I grew up in a multicultural environment, witnessing cultural contrasts since I was a child. My passion for understanding human cultural backgrounds led me to choose international studies and an interculturally oriented career.
Speaking fluent English, Spanish, Portuguese and French, I have a master’s degree in international and cross-cultural negotiation, with a special focus on Latin America and more specifically Brazil.
My thesis explored the foundations of both French and Brazilian cultures and how these differences can lead to misunderstandings and failures when working together. I did my research from the perspective of "not losing face", which is one of the most important cultural dimensions in Brazil. This research angle has never been explored before even though it represents a high stake in Brazilian social and professional relations.
That work, added to my personal experience between France and Brazil enabled me to become a Franco-Brazilian relations facilitator.
I worked a few month for Akteos company, leader in cross-culturalmanagment in France. It helps global firms to improve their competitiveness worldwide.
Currently I am working at George Simons International, concentrating on creating a Portuguese version of the Doing business with the French diversophy® game to assist Brazilians doing business with French organizations and expatriates or when they are working in France. I will also be working to introduce diversophy® to Portuguese-speaking markets.
