About the Guest
Coco is Dutch and has lived outside of The Netherlands since 2016. She lives in Peru and runs her own business, ‘Cross-cultural Solutions’. With Cross-Cultural Solutions, she helps organizations overcome cultural differences in the international workplace.
She helps professionals operating in a global economy understand our cultural background's impact when doing business internationally and across cultures. In her opinion, organizations tend to forget that cultural differences significantly impact how smoothly the business goes and how well teams of different cultural backgrounds work together.
Coco comes from a corporate background, where she worked in an executive management role for the H&M Group for over 10 years. She has lived and worked in The Netherlands, Singapore, Japan and Chile. When she worked in Japan, she realized that managing cultural differences in the international workplace took a lot of time and energy. Time and Energy that, according to her, could have been dedicated to bringing business results to the company. It became clear to her that when those differences are not managed well, we leaders miss out on important queues and cannot influence others in a way that brings the best for all.
She is a cross-cultural trainer, executive coach, keynote speaker and works with companies from all over the world, including companies from The Netherlands.
What is the first thing that comes to mind when discussing Japanese work culture? It is respect, hard work, lifetime employment, and technology savvy for me. Every book I have read about cross-cultural communication and management has had a chapter on Japan.
In my conversation with native Japanese Natsuyo Lipschutz, she explains the Japanese culture and how it is to work or manage someone from Japan. It is a fascinating conversation about one of the most exciting cultures to study workplace dynamics.
