The Culture Map: Breaking Through the Invisible Boundaries of Global Business
Description
An international business expert helps you understand and navigate cultural
differences in this insightful and practical guide, perfect for both your work
and personal life. Americans precede anything negative with three nice
comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans get straight to the point;
Latin Americans and Asians are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians think the
best boss is just one of the crowd. It’s no surprise that when they try and

Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in
which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work
harmoniously together. She provides a field-tested model for decoding how
cultural differences impact international business, and combines a smart
analytical framework with practical, actionable advice. Read more
