This new tool provides information on how to conduct business in more than 100 countries with tips on business protocols, (including introductions and exchanging business cards), using interpreters, and business ethics.

The Global Advice section of the portal covers topics such as Tips for Effective Global Communication, Advice for Managers working Globally, and dealing with Culture Shock and Re-Entry.
