Intercultural Management Competence:

"H a r d"    f a c t s    a n d    "s o f t"    f a c t s

On one hand pragmatic concepts require analysis, and “hard facts”. On the other hand implementing these concepts successfully usually depends on “soft facts” as well.



Frank Bannys is at home in two worlds.

• As a former Financial Officer and Controller he likes "hard facts". This includes numbers, data and facts as well as strategies and processes. 
• However, as a result of the time he spent in executive positions in Germany and worldwide, he has learned that hard facts are not enough to get things going. In a business context, success is driven by “soft” factors, such as motivated managers, employees and teams as well as a positive corporate culture. 

Frank Bannys greatly enjoys developing these skills from both worlds and working at the intercultural grass roots level.
