INTERCULTURAL UNDERSTANDING
There was a time when intercultural understanding was a nicety, a luxury for the idle rich. Now the world has changed dramatically. To survive in international communication we must be able to understand more about other countries, other cultures, and other ways of doing business. Here are some tips for this.
First of all never generalize. People can’t be stereotyped. Even though they look alike, speak the same language, eat similar food, practice the same religion and live in the same country, each and every person you meet will be different.

Consideration and respect are the qualities you most need to be a successful internationalist. Consideration means you must observe what the local people are doing, ask whenever communication or expected behavior is unclear, listen actively and write down what you hear.
The first impression you produce is very powerful. A good first impression creates the expectation of a positive relationship. A bad first impression, on the other hand, can be overcome only with a lot of work over a long period of time – and sometimes we don’t get that chance!
Be careful with names and titles. For Europeans, a person’s name and title express or imply a wealth of information about family history, education, profession, reputation and personal achievement.
Language and body language is a great gift. It is your initial act of sharing yourself. It is the best way to win friends for yourself, your country and your company. To learn another’s language is the greatest of compliments and you will be richly rewarded.
Be careful about touching. We all know the Italians, Greeks and Spanish are touchers. The English and Scandinavians are non-touchers. Touching is a behavior reserved for friends and family members in almost all cultures. People generally do not touch or want to be touched by strangers, people they meet occasionally, new business associates or new acquaintances.
Food – how you eat it and how you react to it – is essential to the art of diplomacy. Your behavior at the table also is one of the quickest ways to make or lose foreign friends. When your hosts offer you a food that’s local delicacy or national specialty, they are offering you a sample of their culture as well as their friendship.
One more important thing is the way you dress. Europeans make judgments based on appearance and clothing. How you dress is seen as an indicator of your personality and social status.
