Working Across Cultures
Without Losing the Thread
Quintry supports Malaysian companies as they navigate working conversations across regional and cultural lines — through structured pre-session preparation, team workshops, and ongoing advisory practice.
Request a ConversationOur Practice Areas
Three engagement formats, each designed for a different stage of cross-cultural working practice.
Cross-Cultural Conversation Note
A short engagement for Malaysian companies preparing for a significant working conversation across cultural or regional lines — a new ASEAN partner, an international client, or a multi-language team event. Includes a structured pre-conversation session and a written reflection note.
- Language and tone considerations
- Meeting cadence guidance
- Written reflection note provided
Working-Together Workshop for Mixed Teams
A three-week workshop series for Malaysian companies with teams spanning several cultural or language backgrounds. Topics include written communication style, meeting cadence, and shared internal vocabulary — with two on-site workshops and a reference document.
- Two on-site workshops included
- Written reference document
- Shared vocabulary development
Cross-Cultural Advisory Retainer
A nine-month advisory retainer for established Malaysian firms operating across borders or with multi-cultural internal teams. Includes monthly written reviews, fortnightly calls, and one in-person workshop per quarter — covering operational practice and internal communication design.
- Monthly written reviews
- Fortnightly advisory calls
- Quarterly in-person workshop
What Working with Quintry Looks Like
Each engagement is structured around your specific working situation — not a generic programme delivered without context.
Written Deliverables Every Time
Every session produces a written note or reference document — so the conversation continues after the meeting ends.
ASEAN Context, Not Generic Advice
Our practice is rooted in the specific communication and working dynamics of Southeast Asian business — not adapted from Western frameworks.
Designed for Mixed Teams
Our workshops are built around teams that already span cultures — not for companies just beginning to think about the topic.
Clear Engagement Cadence
Each retainer and workshop has a fixed cadence — so your team knows what to expect and when, without ambiguity.
Language and Register Awareness
We pay particular attention to written register, meeting tone, and how language choices land differently across cultural contexts.
Educational Practice Only
Our work is advisory and educational — we help your team develop their own cross-cultural working capacity rather than creating dependency.
A conversation worth having before the conversation
Whether your team is preparing for a new regional partner or managing an ongoing cross-cultural working environment, Quintry can help you work through it with clarity.
