How to Conduct Effective Meetings with Korean Stakeholders

-

Thank you to our attendees - Harmony Agriculture & Food Company, KBR, Forvis Mazars, Austrade, Trade and Investment Queensland and Hancock Agriculture for sharing your experience and insights in working with your Korean counterparts! ⁠

Here are three top takeways that participants learnt in this training.⁠

1️⃣ Importance of gift-giving and gift-wrapping⁠
In Korea, gift wrapping is just as important as the gift itself. A beautifully wrapped present reflects the respect and effort you have put into choosing and delivering the gifts. Participants learned valuable tips on selecting a gift for their Korean counterparts and key considerations to keep in mind.⁠

2️⃣Effective communication across cultures⁠
Clear and respectful communication bridges cultural gaps. Participants learned strategies to navigate potential language barriers and connect effectively with Korean counterparts.⁠

3️⃣ The rotation system ⁠
Did you know that Korean executives typically rotate positions every three years? This system can make long-term relationship-building challenging. Participants learnt how to develop and maintain strong connections despite these rotations.⁠
