Decoding Cultural Difference

The effects of globalization mean that you’re probably talking with folks from all over the world every day, at work or at home. But the same conversation style might be considered rude in Japan and meek in France. How should we navigate these differences?

Learn to stay flexible and take cues from your colleagues with the expert guidance of Erin Meyer, who specializes in cross-cultural management.

We’re sharing some of her best advice in our Instaread on The Culture Map.
