Businessman with headset works from remote at home with his colleagues.
At the beginning of the pandemic, many companies, for the sake of their employee’s safety, shifted to remote work. However, such a model does not always work, because, for example, not every employee has the conditions at home to concentrate on their tasks. That is why a hybrid model has become a good solution, allowing to adapt the mode of working to the needs, capabilities and expectations of individual employees. What does hybrid work really mean and what challenges or advantages does it entail?
During the meeting you will learn:
How to effectively organize communication in a hybrid team
How to motivate remote workers
How to make a team achieve their goals without our help
What a hybrid work culture looks like
The hybrid work model will be discussed by:

The differences separating the Far East from the Western world are so profound that sometimes we may get the impression that we come from different galaxies. In one of those cultures, life is based on friendship and a balance of services, meanwhile in the other – on the rule of law.
We would like to invite you to the continuation of our meeting about the clash of cultures, which will take place on Thursday, May 20 at 8:00 am. This will be the second part of the presentation “East meets West: cross-cultural differences through the eyes of Asians”.
We will answer questions such as:
Since when do people eat with chopsticks in the Far East?
Why should we not treat a Chinese to a cheese sandwich?
What does food mean to Asians?
Why do well-mannered Asians not say exactly what they think?
What cannot be missed in Chinese trains?
Why is the world a “line” in the Western culture and a “sphere” in the Far East?
The meeting will be held by Kamila Radzyńska – business coach, specialised in intercultural communication, member of SIETAR Polska, R&D Manager experienced in foreign trade, romanist, passionate about the Far East, and winner of the Knowledge about France Competition organised by PR III radio and France Inter.

Can a sporting event have anything to do with a business meeting? Sport, like business, brings together people from all over the world – and when they meet, they have to find a common language. In such situations, interpreters make it possible to talk more freely, establish relations, negotiate… No worries about misunderstandings.
One great example is the participation of BALAJCZA Linguistic Services in the Polsat Sport programme “Koloseum – Magazyn Sportów Walki”. The foreign guest on the show was Serigne Ousmane Dia, a Senegalese wrestling champion who came to Poland to face Mariusz Pudzianowski at KSW 59. BALAJCZA’s interpreter simultaneously translated for him what the presenters were saying into French.
However, this is only one of the tasks taken on by BALAJCZA as part of our cooperation with Polsat Sport– we have translated from English, Dutch and Spanish in various sports such as football and boxing.
Simultaneous interpreting for the media is quite a challenge – it requires professionalism, good stress management and great presence. However, these same qualities also come in useful in less formal situations such as conferences, presentations, or even ordinary business meetings.
Therefore, if your company wants to put effective communication first, contact us and find out more:
Dress code. Seemingly everything has been said about it, but still few people realise what an enormous impact it has. This workshop will show you how much can change when you take care of your image and your company’s image. We will focus not only on general dress code rules, but also on ways to improve your personal image. We will look at male and female silhouette types to select appropriate cuts, and analyse which colours will suit us best. The goal is to build an image that makes us feel confident enough to conquer the world.
Workshop program:
Nothing to wear? That’s unacceptable in business –the market value of clothing and its impact on others as well as on the company’s image
Colours in business – why it is better not to appear in beige at important negotiations
Basic types of male and female silhouettes – ideal cuts for each silhouette and inspirations
Image faux pas –what ruins a business image
The proper dressing pyramid – the basics of putting together a business wardrobe. The magic of sets and accessories that build prestige.
Fundamental principles of elegance and the international language of dress code
