I really enjoyed the cross-cultural theory and mix of references. Our trainer managed to get people of all levels in the team involved, whether our admin staff or associate directors.
Leanna Caron, Senior Director, European Marketing, Genzyme EuropeCommunicaid’s Living & Working in Oman courses are designed to respond to the needs of international assignees by providing practical information and advice on the various aspects of living and working in Oman.
By completing a Living and Working in Oman course, you will have a thorough understanding of Omani culture which will help you counter any preconceived misconceptions or stereotypes so you and your family can have a more positive and successful experience living and working in Oman.
The second largest country on the Arabian Peninsula, Oman sits in one of the most geographically strategic locations in the world. With an economy fuelled by large oil and natural gas reserves, the Sultan of Oman has been able to transform this rugged country from a regional backwater to a highly modern international locale. Still in the shadow of Dubai and Saudi Arabia, Oman is increasingly attracting the attention of foreigners, both for business and leisure purposes. Though very open to western ideas, Oman retains its traditional cultural and religious values that are far more conservative than westerners will be used to. Moreover, the large numbers of foreign workers, especially from India, Pakistan and China, add an additional cultural element which international assignees must understand in order to have a successful experience living and working in Oman.
Ensure a successful international assignment in Oman by learning more about Omani business and social culture.
