- What do you know about these cultures-specifically their economic, political, educational, and social systems-that could help you in getting them together?
- What are some of the contrasting cultural values of these countries?
As you begin to plan, you are concerned about some of the language barriers, particularly the fact that the United States is a low-context country, and some of the countries present are high-context countries. Furthermore, you only speak English, and you do not have an interpreter planned at this time. What strategy would you use to begin to have everyone develop a relationship with each other that will help ease future negotiations, development, and implementation? Address the following questions in your response.
- How will this affect the presentation?
