The trainer's style and his flexibility allowed us to question as we felt we required.
Peter Rawlinson, AONCommunicaid’s Doing Business in Nigeria cultural awareness courses are ideal for businesses looking to invest in this emerging market and individuals who wish to develop successful business relationships with Nigerians.
As the most populated country on the African continent, Nigeria is a melting pot of culture, languages, religions and ethnicities. Considerable improvements have been made since problems during colonial times and more recent political conflicts after independence. The government is now trying to improve the country’s infrastructure, integrate agriculture and industry, become less reliant on the oil industry, privatise and modernise. These measures are crucial steps needed in order to increase foreign investment. Today, Nigeria can boast its longest period of civilian rule since its independence, which is a confirmation of its slow but growing progress.
A Doing Business in Nigeria course will provide you with an understanding of Nigerian business approaches and allow you to bridge the cultural gaps through a combination of trainer-led discussion, group activities and strategy development. Ensure a successful international assignment in Nigeria by learning more about Nigerian business and social culture.
