New Challenges: Setting Course for Tomorrow’s Key Regions..., 2026/02/05

How are HR needs changing in international organisations?

HR teams are more and more involved in supporting employees who work every day with international colleagues. These employees are not expatriates, but they work in an international environment. Because of this, new needs are emerging, especially in intercultural skills.

Intercultural issues now concern many employees

Today, intercultural challenges are not only linked to international mobility. Managers, project teams, support functions and sales teams regularly work with partners, clients or colleagues based in other countries. These daily interactions create practical challenges related to communication, coordination and decision-making.

Some regions are particularly concerned, such as Eastern Europe and the Middle East, where international business and cross-border projects are growing fast.

HR expectations: practical and operational solutions

To respond to these new realities, HR departments are looking for training solutions that fit with employees’ day-to-day constraints. Short, focused and practical formats are now preferred, in addition to existing digital learning programmes.

The goal is no longer only to explain cultural differences, but to help employees adapt their professional behaviour to specific countries or regions.

A new initiative from GapsMoov

As a certified partner of the Cercle Magellan, GapsMoov is developing its intercultural training offer by expanding the “Live” feature of its platform, « the culture decoder ». New topics have recently been created for countries and regions where companies’ needs are increasing, especially Latin America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

These Live sessions focus on real professional situations linked to local contexts. They also complement digital learning with interactive discussions led by intercultural experts.

Towards flexible and hybrid learning solutions

The evolution of HR needs in intercultural matters reflects a clear trend: offering hybrid solutions that combine digital tools with targeted group sessions, in order to support teams working in increasingly diverse international environments.
