Overcoming Cultural Barriers to Global Marketing

Jean Monnet, the founder of the European Community, once declared, "If I were again facing the challenge to integrate Europe, I would probably start with culture." Culture is the context in which things happen. Whether you develop, market, sell or purchase products for a global audience or interact with people from around the world -- even if they work in the next cubicle -- you must address the issues of culture to be effective.

How and why do the needs of people from one country differ from those in a different country? How do you assess this? In this presentation we examine definitions of culture and consider how cultural differences are expressed. We will then explore the use of tools called cultural models, review the variables that define these models of culture, and weigh their usefulness. We also discuss how to develop a customized model of culture for your particular context.

Overcoming Cultural Barriers to Global Marketing was presented by Nancy Hoft, of Nancy Hoft Consulting and is previously recorded. To learn more or download this event, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com

An Introduction to Regulatory Writing: Creating an Effective Message

Did you ever wonder what reviewers look for in your regulatory submissions? This audio conference combines the results of two in-depth interviews regarding effective writing in regulatory submissions and with known effective writing techniques and practices. The interviews were with a previous FDA reviewer and a current reviewer for a large Notified Body. Both interviewees shared their reactions to the quality and effectiveness of the writing in the hundreds of submissions they have each reviewed.

Topics include: analyzing the audience, identifying topics, organizing the topics in a logical way, applying document design principles, establishing document management conventions, writing, and assessing the effectiveness of your writing.
