Sukhova Business english 2016

Exercises 1. Answer the following questions

particularly African and Middle Eastern countries, the left hand is regarded as
unclean, so you should not give things to people, pass food, and so on, with your
left hand.
Food and eating habits is probably the most interesting area of international
etiquette, but you will be eating in international restaurants most of the time –
although I hope you can all handle chopsticks! You probably will not be invited
to anyone’s home on this trip but if you ever do, make sure you check out the
way to behave first. There is lots of potential for unintentionally cuisine offence.
For example, in Singapore you should always say no to a second helping of food
(you will probably get some anyway!), and it is polite to leave some food on
your plate at the end. Whereas in somewhere like Russia that would probably
offend your host.
Etiquette helps maintain good relations with people. When dealing with
people from a shared culture, everyone knows the rules and there is not much to
think about. Those that lack etiquette are branded as uncouth and rude.
However, this is not the same when working on the international stage. Someone
may very well come across as being rude through a lack of etiquette but this
may be because in their culture that behaviour is normal. As a result
international business etiquette is a key skill for those wanting to be successful
when working abroad. Through a great appreciation and understanding of others'
cultures, you build stronger and longer lasting business relationships.
