Working With Us

About Working With Us

The working with us podcast is a podcast by global business strategist Paul Arnesen, created to learn and educate professionals, businesses and others about how it is to work with people from different nationalities. As the world has become ever more globalised in the last decades, and the previous few years with the rise in remote work, the knowledge and understanding of how to work more efficiently in global teams is more critical than ever. Established companies need to re-educate themselves as they welcome a new generation with a global mindset, and there are new start-up companies with global dominance as their goal. An often forgotten aspect of international expansion is knowledge and experience working with someone different from their work culture. By listening to the interviews on the Working With Us podcast, we hope to give you an easy and digestible way of learning about other cultures' work habits and cultural quirks. In addition, we hope you use it for your knowledge and to educate your global teams. Have a great listen!

Join host Paul Arnesen and Dutch culture expert Coco Hofs as we delve into the realities of working with the Dutch. In this engaging dialogue, we unpack the Netherlands' unique professional landscape, exploring its direct communication style and balanced work-life culture. Whether you're preparing for a Dutch business venture or simply curious, tune in as we decode the intricacies of the Dutch workspace. Dive in with us as we journey through the globe's diverse work cultures. About the Guest Coco is Dutch and has lived outside of The Netherlands since 2016. She lives in Peru and runs her own business, ‘Cross-cultural Solutions’. With Cross-Cultural Solutions, she helps organizations overcome cultural differences in the international workplace. She helps professionals operating in a global economy understand our cultural background's impact when doing business internationally and across cultures. In her opinion, organizations tend to forget that cultural differences significantly impact how smoothly the business goes and how well teams of different cultural backgrounds work together. Coco comes from a corporate background, where she worked in an executive management role for the H&M Group for over 10 years. She has lived and worked in The Netherlands, Singapore, Japan and Chile. When she worked in Japan, she realized that managing cultural differences in the international workplace took a lot of time and energy. Time and Energy that, according to her, could have been dedicated to bringing business results to the company. It became clear to her that when those differences are not managed well, we leaders miss out on important queues and cannot influence others in a way that brings the best for all.

    Working with Italians

    Watch this episode on Youtube Episode description What is the first thing that comes to mind when discussing Italy? Amazing food, art, culture, fast cars, the pope, Romans, and so much more. Italy is a country with an impressive history, and this has made its people very unique. You might know some second-generation Italians, but do you know the real native Italian? In this podcast episode, I speak with native Italian intercultural trainer and consultant Maura di Mauro about working with Italians. We dive deeper into the Italian culture and mentality and what makes hiring, working with or having Italians in your remote team can bring value to your business or your workday.
