International organisations can profit immensely from the above benefits of doing business in Russia
. Utilising these benefits comes with the necessity to create effective strategies for navigating the geographic, political and cultural diversity of Russian society. This requires a comprehensive understanding of Russian business and social culture on all levels. International organisations employing people in Russia or working with Russians on a regular basis should therefore have a series of cross-cultural training programmes on Doing Business in Russia to ensure they develop the skills to successfully deal with the many cultural differences.
