- “I happen to meet Christian during a one on one intercultural training he took me on
behalf of crown relocations. The exercise was a whole day affair but it looked so short to
me as he made every minute of the training very interesting. I was longing to learn
more. He combines his rich cultural background of being a half Vietnamese half
European to bring to bear in his trainings...and been a widely travelled person, he has go
so much experience up his sleeve which made him link his training to real life
experience. I will recommend Christian any time any day...he is a great guy...a training
expert par excellence.”

Christian’s personal experience and background make him ideal for this program. He
provided excellent advice for improving conditions at work. The most useful part was
discussions and advice on how on dealing with Japanese, Vietnamese and American mix
at work. I am considering to invite Christian to meet our Management staff at work. I
believe his personal experience and perspective could bring Japanese expectations at
work more in line with Vietnamese working and cultural standards. Thanks.

Christian is excellent, very knowledgeable and professional. He has a vast knowledge on
Vietnamese Culture. I think we have finished the session with more understanding on

overtime with us to make sure that our questions were fully answered.

Time well spent. During the scheduling I was skeptical about taking the course because I
have already lived and worked in many countries and Cultures. Christian changed my
perception. His knowledge and interaction was impressive. I wish I would have done it
sooner.
The training was a great interaction and discussion. I was able to assimilate course
information directly to personal and professional experience. It is excellent well worth
the value and commitment.

I am very happy to hear that the program went very well!! As Andrew mentioned in his
evaluation, he was initially skeptical about the program and its benefits. When I spoke
to him on the phone, he didn’t seem too interested in it and especially he had multiple
int’l assignments before. I am so glad to see such good feedback from the client and he
truly see the values of the program.
Thank you for everything Christian!

Ricardo U. – Regional Manufacturing Engineering Operations Director – NIKE
Hired Christian as a Cross Cultural Consultant, Trainer, Coach on October 18th, 2017
The most useful parts of the training were:
- Reviewing and comparing my Latin culture to Vietnamese and other Asian cultures using
the Country Navigator tool.
- The Vietnamese cultural elements useful for my work environment and relationships
with Vietnamese people in and out of work.
The training was very useful by providing me with a better understanding of Vietnamese
Culture that will surely help my relationships with Vietnamese people in and out of
work.
The unique combination of Christian's Vietnamese and Western roots and perfect
understanding of elements of both cultures provided us with, I would say, the perfect
'coach/teacher' to help us better understand Vietnamese Culture and find interesting
common elements between Vietnamese and our Culture.
The program, as it is, is quite good. Christian's skills and unique background really made
a huge positive difference. I would recommend my company to continue providing this
useful and valuable program to all expats coming to Vietnam.

14. Stefan P. - Country Manager Vietnam - CWT Commodities Indochine Pte. Ltd.
Hired Christian as a Cross Cultural Executive Coach on April 8th, 2016
I had the pleasure to have Christian as my coach for more than a year. Being myself a
“new” expat in South East Asia, it was very important to acquire a deep and detailed
understanding of the many cultural differences in a professional working environment,
as well as our daily lives. During those highly interactive coaching sessions, it became
fast evident, that even with a good “feel” of the culture, we still do, see and perceive
things differently.
Christian was an expert in finding those differences and has the expertise and skills to
teach clearly how to avoid them or how to deal with them. It helped me a lot to become
a better Manager of a Vietnamese organization.
Cem K. - Head of Business Unit Livestock - Bayer Vietnam Ltd.

Thanks indeed for the introduction that you made recently, it was really interesting and
beneficial. Being for myself in this country for 20 years; I feel there were several
important cultural elements that you brought forward and for which you helped to put a
word on these differences. These cultural behaviours are there every day and
sometimes we do misinterpret them and this can be at time source of misunderstanding
and problematic issues etc.

Translated from Vietnamese:
…Thank you for your dedication, along with the very detailed lecture.
Thanks to you, I have a better understanding of the culture of my country, the
Vietnamese culture, in a systematic way, and know the cultural profiles of Japan, Korea,
and the Philippines.
Based on this, we will be able to build a harmonious culture in the company, helping
people work better with each other, making the work more efficient and employees
happier.
Through the learning process, I felt your enthusiasm, dedication and a lot of
“satisfaction” in the learning process. The real stories you shared, your experience,
made the course more interesting.
For myself, this class brings surprises from start to finish. From the extremely thorough
course content, cultural issues were considered at the root, and the solutions were
given accordingly, extremely easy to understand and to apply…
