Lu was a very interesting presenter who was able to openly discuss her personal experiences in both cultures, which made the presentattion engaging and very informative. I picked up a lot of interesting cultural information that will help me understand and communicate with our Chinese colleagues.

Lu presented this very well - she used her own experiences to add a lot of context and understanding. Recommend the entire company attend these sessions.

Learning what can offend was very valuable and makes me realise some things, we should have had this workshop immediately after the merger so we could have integrated a bit easier in places, less offensively it seems.

I really enjoyed this and think a refresher one every 12 months would be a great idea - it will help with us Kiwis' understanding our workmates better. :)
