Cultural differences

Cultural differences are the variations in the way of life, beliefs, traditions and laws between different countries, religions, societies and people.

Important to be aware of differences because it helps to avoid conflicts and misunderstandings

Misunderstandings caused by cultural differences A Canadian conducting business in Kuwait is surprised when his meeting with a high- ranking official is not held in a closed office and is constantly interrupted. He starts wondering if the official is as important as he had been led to believe, and he starts to doubt how seriously his business is being taken

Misunderstandings caused by cultural differences A British boss asked a new, young American employee if he would like to have an early lunch at 11 am each day. The employee said 'Yeah, that would be great!' The boss immediately said "With that kind of attitude, you may as well forget about lunch!" The employee and the boss were both baffled by what went wrong. [In England, saying "yeah" in that context is seen as rude and disrespectful.]

Cultural differences Visual differences Norms and values Key Beliefs
