The Interoots cross-cultural adjustment program uses 'The Roots of Life' as a compass to guide the family through advising sessions.

This
proprietary methodology branches from the wheel of life concept, adapting the vital pillars that are indispensable for personal and professional fulfillment in a new-land scenario. 


Our advisory process unfolds over six pivotal 1 hour long sessions. In each session, we jointly explore the main relevant areas of 'The Roots of Life'. 


By the end of our journey together, we ensure that all these eight vital domains are fulfilled in your new home.

The program is divided into two critical phases, which take place during a 90 day interval: Pre-Move Preparation and Post-Move Integration, providing steadfast support to the expatriate and their family throughout the entire moving phase, from departing one's hometown to landing in the new location.
