The United States is a remarkable cultural mix. That’s why they are said to be a melting pot of nations, where the influences of countless cultures and nationalities are all blended together.
Jimmy Carter, however, preferred a slightly different term. He used to say: “We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams..”
If you work with Americans on a daily basis, it is worth taking a closer look at their culture and considering which of its aspects are important for better business cooperation.
During the meeting we will approach the following topics:
- What’s up? That is, small talk and conversing about nothing – why is it so important to Americans?
- Awesome, amazing, fantastic – why do Americans overuse these words? We will talk about the national optimism of Americans.
- Individualism, or how do Americans approach teamwork, shared responsibility and separation of duties?
Moreover:
- How can you communicate effectively with Americans? And how do Americans give feedback?
- How can you build good relations with Americans?
- Is it true that for an American “time is money”?
The person to tell us about effective cooperation with the Americans will be:
