More Poles live in the UK today than ever before. Our Polish cultural awareness services are an effective introduction to cultural and diversity awareness, and also a practical guide to communicating effectively across cultures. Keeping lines of communication open to the Polish community through the use of services that improve Polish cultural awarenes is becoming increasingly important in our modern and multiculturally aware society.
Today's successful organisations are increasingly likely to require their staff have the Polish Cultural Awareness skills to operate to understand the cultural implications of their decisions. Our Polish cultural awareness service ensures they possess the ability to turn Polish cultural awareness to their advantage.
Prestige's Polish cultural awareness programmes will raise the understanding and awareness of how culture impacts on an organisation and personnel. They provide the necessary foundation, framework and tools to be culturally competent and sensitive to individuals form a Polish cultural background.
The growing need to negotiate and communicate effectively across cultural boundaries demands a high level of understanding as to the ways in which different cultures approach issues. The earlier Polish cultural awareness can be created, the more effective individuals dealing with the Polish speaking population will be.
Topics covered on the programme include:
We realize at Prestige Network that marketing and communication relates to not only languages but also values, beliefs and attitudes that differ from culture to culture. We provide our clients with specialized consultancy on Polish cultural awareness. We make sure that the context of the message is adapted to appeal to Polish cultures.
How will it benefit:
Polish is the 29th most spoken language in the world, and is one of the most widely spoken Slavic languages. The official language of Poland, Polish is spoken by most of the 38 million inhabitants of Poland (census 2002) and anywhere up to 48 million Poles living across the world. Countries that have a significant Polish speaking population include the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Brazil, Israel, Canada and the United States.
There are a great many dialects in the Polish language that are unique to the various regions of Poland. For the non-native speaker, this can make Polish cultural awareness confusing and difficult; however native Polish speakers can fluently understand all variations of the language. Prestige Network's Polish translators and interpreters are all native speakers of the Polish language.
