BEFORE THE VISIT · DO-IT-YOURSELF
The visit is in the diary. The friction isn't.Â
A self-paced masterclass and four downloadable resources for UK hosts and the Latin American delegations they receive. Both systems, at your own pace.
Get the Field Kit →Both sides prepare the agenda. Few prepare for each other.
The host team has booked the rooms and planned the lunch. The delegation has its targets and a packed schedule.
Neither side has looked at how the other decides, how long trust takes to build, or why a yes in the meeting may not be a yes after it.
The Field Kit gives both sides the Slots v. Loops™ map. It has a masterclass short enough to watch tonight, and resources light enough to review in the taxi.

WHAT'S INSIDE
What the field kit coversÂ
The British-LatAm Field Kit™ is built on Slots v. Loops™ and includes all hosts and guests will need for the visit: one masterclass and four downloadable resources.
· The Slots v. Loops™ Masterclass. 30 micro-lessons walking you through how The Slot System™ and The Loop System™ show up across the four dimensions of British-LatAm friction. Watch it in one sitting, or dip in before a specific meeting.
· London for Business Travellers Guide. For the delegation. How to move through London like someone who already knows it: logistics, timing, and the small decisions that make a visit work.
· British-LatAm Meeting Planner. For the hosts. Get the shape of the meeting right before it starts: who should be there, how long it should run, and how to structure it so both sides leave with the same understanding.
· How to Present to British-LatAm Audiences Cheatsheet. For both sides. Adjust references, structure and delivery for a mixed room, so the message lands the same way on both sides.
· Before You Walk In: Protocol & Etiquette Playbook. For the delegation. The last check before the first handshake: what to confirm, what to avoid, and what most visitors get wrong in the first five minutes.
