Advice on Bridging Cultural Gaps?
2 by Aloha | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I've recently moved into a role where I'm having direct contact with peers in Japan, and I'm noticing what I'd call "cultural impedance" issues. Mostly, missteps in communication, mis-set expectations, etc. I also feel like there are a bunch of other rules in play that I should know about, but do not have a good grasp on. I'm wondering if there are any good books or other resources out there I can read about business communications in Japan, and how to improve how I communicate with my Japanese peers (aside from learning Japanese, which I'm pondering, but its a complex language, and seems daunting)?
