Petra Chiba has provided her professional assistance to an African regional Network Seminar, organized in April 2009 by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), Private Sector Development Branch (PSD), Vienna, Austria.She worked with the Seminar participants on the session focused on ‘Communication for Effective Networking’.She underlined that to communicate effectively as professionals one needs to be conscious of both his/her own verbal communication patterns and body language .Ms. Chiba demonstrated a number of cross-cultural techniques aiming at effective communication with network partners, local authorities and other stakeholders, either in spoken or written form, which can help achieving successful results in building professional networks at the national level. We thank for your session, you gave us effective tools ,for the networking. You were able to instil these issues in the participants coming from different cultures.
With very best regards, Inez Wijngaarde
