Sample Talks
Why can´t the others be like me?
Do I know my own cultural rules? Do I know my own values? Let´s look at the written and, crucially, the unwritten rules of our culture. What are the core values? What are the important rituals? Who are the "heros"? What symbols show us who we are? When I know the answer to these questions, I can look at the other culture and get to the root of the differences I encounter in communication and behavior. The result is confidence in my ability to be successful in business outside my own culture.
