Testimonials

Annelise engages her audience and manages to make theories relevant. Her presentations are thought-provoking, yet warm and delivered with humour and enthusiasm. Leaders and professionals will benefit from this and thus be more aware of challenges and pitfalls in communication across cultures.   

NHH ALUMNI

Few engage an audience the way Annelise does. Our participants, both young students and professionals, experienced an uplifting and empowering conversation. Her balance of empathy and competency is recommended to people of all ages and of various professional backgrounds.

Annelise brings unique insights and experiences relevant for any globalized workplace. Her competence has added value to Western Bulk and created awareness around cultural differences. We highly recommend her to any company or organization with a global presence or with international employees.

WESTERN BULK

Annelise had prepared and executed two workshops, split into 3 sub-sessions, for all employees. Furthermore Annelise arranged one workshop for a more focused training of employees that had regular client contact. Here the focus was on improving cultural understanding and awareness of differences at specific markets/regions . These workshops had to be executed virtually (in Zoom) and over several sessions to ensure the groups were not too large. Through a combination of presentations of research and practical cases tied up with  making available written material on the workshop topics , I am of the opinion that we all sit back with a much better understanding and awareness of how we can communicate better being located at different places despite having different cultural background.

We thank Annelise for her contribution!

We would gladly use her again to assist us and can recommend the support and training she can provide to other companies with similar communication and locations challenges as CSS.
