Building intercultural bridges for reaching business agreements
1. More and more companies are increasing their language training budgets
to equip staff for global business. But language alone isn’t always enough.
Companies from different countries can usually deal with language differences by
learning foreign languages. But they also need to be able to deal with cultural
differences. That is where intercultural training comes in.
2. Differences between northern and southern European countries are well
documented. Executives from Germany who want to do business in Italy or Spain
need to understand the ground rules. Meetings are rarely used to solve problems
and reach agreement in these countries. Instead, meetings are used to spread
information about decisions which have already been made.

3. Similarly, business people need to understand the cultural systems of
respect and deference when they meet up with Asian counterparts. For example,
senior executives from Japan will only discuss business with people from the same
management level. The message for companies here is, don’t send anybody but
senior people to meetings with Japanese counterparts. In south-east Asian cultures
it’s the group that’s important in decision making. An individual will seldom agree
to something until a consensus has been reached among colleagues.
4. Companies are still investing more money in improving foreign language
skills. Analysts want to see a situation where investment in intercultural awareness
is on the same level as language training. Only then will the companies be able to
send out well-prepared executives capable of building business bridges in the
global environment. Training in intercultural awareness – as well as languages – is
the key to overcoming the communication gap.
