Assignment:
Trompenaars wrote about "cultural differences and how they affect the process of doing business" and he attempted to help readers "how to recognise and cope with these in a business context".
Using the work of Hofstede and/or Trompenaars, write a report that follows standard report writing conventions, about the cultural differences between Spain and a country of your choice.
The report should present the key differences; discuss how they affect the process of doing business and and evaluate how effectively the two cultures could work together.
