Introduction 1
1 Interpreting the party line 5
The harder the global organization tries to present a united
front, the greater the scope for conflict and misunderstanding.
How can you bridge the gap between HQ and subsidiary?
Mission statements 6; Corporate initiatives 8; Working
rhythms 14; Communication styles 17
2 Knowing your place 21
On home ground, an employee usually knows where others fit
into the hierarchy, and how they expect to be treated.
Abroad, however, it s easy to upset people without realizing it.
How can you make sure you re speaking to the right person
in the right way?
Handling the hierarchy 23; Taking responsibility 30;
Monitoring performance 32; Getting people to play ball 36
iv ¦ Contents
3 Knowing the limits 45
In their own culture, most people will have a pretty good idea
of what they should or shouldn t do. But, how well do your
notions of right and wrong travel?
Rules, regulations and the laws of the land 47; Gifts, favours
and bribes 52; Nepotism 56; Discretion versus dishonesty 60
4 Knowing the form 65
Good manners are valued by every culture. But how
international are the social behaviours you learnt at your
mother s knee?
Greeting people 67; Making small talk 70; Playing the
conversation game 71; Choosing what to say and how to
say it 73; Trying to be funny 78; Avoiding hidden dangers 81
5 Making presentations 85
Companies today spend millions on training their managers
to make more effective presentations. But will the techniques
you learnt at home be equally effective when you go abroad?
Choosing the right style 87; Finding a concrete context 97;
Speaking with impact 103
6 Making deals 111
The success of any deal depends as much on the strength
of the relationship as on the clauses in the contract. But
negotiating styles vary considerably front culture to culture.
What adjustments do you need to make when you re
negotiating in the international arena?
Picking the right people 113; Thinking about pace and
place 118; Playing the game to win 123
7 Making yourself understood in English 137
Whatever your nationality or native tongue, you will probably
use English to communicate with your international
counterparts. But their version of English will be different
from yours. How can you learn to speak Offshore English
which is the true lingua franca of international commerce?
Language 139; Communication techniques 150
Contents ¦ v
Knowing yourself 161
Knowing yourself is the first step to knowing others.
Where do you fall on the cultural preference scales? And
how should you adapt your approach when you meet
someone who is at the opposite end of the scale from you?
Relationships 163; Communication 169; Time 172;
Truth 176; The meaning of life 179; Presentation style 181;
A final word 183
Appendix: False friends 185
A list of words whose meanings may be misunderstood
