Welcome to IML Education
Today, it is not enough to only have technical knowledge or product knowledge to be successful in
business.
Social Competence and language is an essential item on the list, which one needs to become successful
for both, individuals and companies as a whole.
Cultural differences and different languages are a part of the reality in today’s international business
world.
I will help you make sure that your co-workers, team leaders, managers, and senior management acquire
these skills. This might relate to handle daily interactions, to maximise effectiveness in the team, as
well as reduce chances of any possible misunderstandings.
About me:
Ingegerd Minocher Lindberg
Certified M.A. from Uppsala University, and a diploma in the Design of Digital Didactic from
Yrkeshögskolan, Gothenburg (2020)
I am a Swedish National who has lived in India since 1991.
Over the last 20 years, I have spent time in Sweden and India working with business culture and Cross
Culture Competence.
I am a licensed teacher by the Swedish National Agency for Education
I have taught Swedish to Immigrants Under the government program for Swedish for Immigrants, and also
taught Swedish in India, both private classes (groups and individuals) and Corporate Training, most
recently for Zacco.
I have conducted courses and seminars in ‘Cross Cultural Competence’ for a number of companies here in
India, like Volvo, Ericsson Software, AVEVA, Infosys, Mindtree, ABB, Cognizant, and IBM, to name a few.
During the last few years I have spent extended periods of time in Sweden and worked with similar
issues.
This includes, for example, teaching as a professional expert as part of Lund University’s MBA program.
Testimonials:
I am a ENT doctor who moved from India to Sweden last October. I was introduced to Ingered by my
professor. She helped me kick start my swedish learning. I thought I'm too old to learn new tricks
but with her help I could easily reach A1 level of swedish in 15days. She started a very good
momentum which helped me go further with full confidence. I am at B2 level in 6months. I would
highly reccomened her for your to learn Swedish. She is such a down to earth person and fun to learn
from.
-Divya Upadhya
I took Swedish language classes under Ingegerd in 2019. I was quite pleased to have learnt from her.
All the course package was designed by her based on her years of experience teaching non-natives in
India and Sweden. She links back some of the difficult Swedish pronunciations back to Indian words
which makes it easy to remember. Throughout the language course, she also helps students integrate
with the Swedish societal norms and culture which is very very useful especially if one is planning
to relocate or study in Sweden. Overall, it was a blessing in disguise for me to have found her in
Bangalore and to have had an opportunity to learn from her.
-Manjunat Chenna
In connection with AB Volvo establishing its truck and bus operations and manufacturing facilities in
Bangalore in the late 1990’s, IML held courses in Indo-Swedish cultural differences for local key
and some expat Volvo staff. These courses contributed to smoothing of cooperation in work between
individuals from the two cultures.
-Henning Ericson, Former CFO - Volvo India
I have been working in ABB from 1998 up to June this year. I start in Aker Energy AS in September. I
got to know Ingegerd in 2005. I came to Bangalore to head and build ABBs global engineering and
sourcing center. Through the Swedish association I came in contact with Ingegerd. I saw here
strength having both european/us and indian (being married and living in India) cultural
understanding. She did a fantastic job for us in ABB. I can for sure recommend her for other
companies.
