Testimonials
"I thank Wolfgang Messner for his effort in supporting our Indian projects. As a trainer and coach he manages to convey images in his workshops that adequately reflect the reality and thereby help our employees to safely, respectfully and thus successfully collaborate with their Indian colleagues. In addition, the seminar opens a door to a rather different, impressive culture. We consistently receive a very good feedback from the participants – and an excellent one after their first visit to India."
Ignaz Vinzens, Director, IGS GmbH, St. Gallen (Switzerland), 04/2010
"The intercultural workshop was indeed a very interesting day packed with lots of fun, information and spicy food for thought. It helped bridge the cultural gap between Indians, British, Germans and Italians by creating more awareness of the differences in cultural values. It added the essence of the 'people factor' to the project which makes distributed delivery very lively and more collaborative. This workshop should be conducted with every client who runs an offshore delivery component. Wolfgang Messner conducted the workshop very professionally keeping in mind the minutest of details."
Shantanu Patil, Project Manager, Capgemini, Mumbai (India), 08/2010
