The quick training of expatriates prior to departure meant to raise their awareness of cultural habits is insufficient to increase the efficiency of multicultural teams. Such improvement requires helping each team member to decipher the main cultural references of their counterparts and to organize themselves in a way that is acceptable in all of their universes of meaning. This chapter provides an example of such cross-cultural coaching for a Franco-Malagasy team and details the six-step method implemented by the cultural analyst. It also suggests different leverages for improvement depending on the team’s specific context. Whenever tight intercultural integration is required, organizing complementarity between sub-groups may turn out less costly than striving for complex arrangements.
