👩🍳 Culinary Workshops
Teams collaborate to create local dishes, promoting creativity and communication. Shared success in cooking fosters stronger bonds and deeper cooperation.
⏰ Prioritize punctuality in Slovakia
Timeliness is not flexible; being late is viewed as profoundly disrespectful, which will absolutely hinder cross-cultural team-building efforts during a retreat.
🎩 Address colleagues by their titles to foster respect
Use of professional titles is key to fostering immediate respect. Neglecting this may disrupt company etiquette and undermine team cohesion during initial interactions.
🤝 Emphasize group consensus in discussions
Avoid aggressive debate. Emphasizing group consensus enhances harmony and retreat preparation, which is a small hack for highly effective cross-cultural collaboration.
