Empowering Multicultural Leaders Across Southeast Asia
Custom Training & Cross-Cultural Programmes Tailored to Thailand, ASEAN & Beyond
We help organisations across Southeast Asia strengthen cross-cultural effectiveness, develop local talent, and reduce reliance on expatriate expertise through structured, practical, and measurable solutions.
About Olive Training Consultants
Olive Training Consultants is a specialist consultancy focused on cross-cultural effectiveness, workplace mentoring, and nationalisation strategies across Southeast Asia.
We work with organisations operating in complex, multicultural environments — particularly in industries such as mining, energy, and manufacturing — where international expertise and local teams must operate seamlessly together.
With extensive experience across the region, we understand the real challenges that arise when different cultural expectations, communication styles, and leadership approaches meet in the workplace.
Our approach goes beyond traditional training. We partner with organisations to develop practical capability, align behaviours, and ensure that knowledge is transferred effectively — not retained by individuals.
By combining cross-cultural expertise with structured workforce development, we help organisations build stronger local capability, reduce reliance on expatriates, and create more sustainable, high-performing teams.

Training Methodology
Our Training and Development Methodology
Due to the nature of our training methodology, we encourage face-to-face classes. However, in some cases we are happy to deliver programmes via online communications systems such as Teams or Zoom. During the initial training needs analysis stage these methods are often useful in reducing cost and saving time.
