Cross-Cultural Twitter Interviews

Moving abroad for the first time can be daunting. And yet many international business professionals are faced with this option at some stage in their career.

The thought of living in a different culture raises a number of questions. And it’s natural to turn to others for advice. Here are some tips from twitter on what to do to make your move abroad an easy one.

21 Tips On Living Abroad

1. Know what your doing. Compare prices of movers. Haggle. Decide: Rent or Buy? Visit your destination prior 2 moving – @HoeferleConsult
2. Visit the country & talk to people who lived there, discard your expectations you have through books, movies or vacations – learning the language is essential but not enough …don’t underestimate cultural differences! If starting a company get cross-cultural advise. It’s disheartening to see, that so many companies from abroad fail in the US by not getting expert advise in cross cultural matters – Walmart in Germany could have been successful if they would have followed intercultural advisers - @transdomo
3. Expect the unexpected & to be challenged, be open-minded and flexible, learn the language… and finally…move out of yr comfort zone and the expat community – @culturematters
4. Study the language first. It will give u invaluable clues about socialization. Talk with people who lived where u go – @tdebaillon
5. A tip to people moving abroad is learn polite terms & greetings in host country & don’t be afraid to use them. – @DR4Ward
6. Listen 2 music by country’s most famous composer. Its spirit is part of personality of people u’ll have 2 work with – @XCulture
7. Really get in to your new culture and embrace it. You begin to value your own a lot more. – @jackyan
8. Don’t assume that your approach or solution, which may be common practice back home… is the default/preferred method. Culture affects how people look at problems and brainstorm solutions. In short, what may have worked back home may not work elsewhere!  Can I add one more comment on the last question?  Read, read, read! This will help you acclimatize. It will also help you lessen culture shock. – @CotterHUE
9. Engage with people before you go, build friends – @wisequeen
10. A tip for those moving abroad? Familiarize yourself with food, music, art; history can be gr8 icebreaker, equalizer to interact – @DoreenatDMS
11. Learn as much as you can of the language before you arrive. Helps you feel more comfortable in the first days and go with an open mind – expect things to be different – @pocketcultures
12. Be open to pushing your boundaries to “walk in their shoes”; e.g.,mostly I am vegetarian,except when I travel – @psitutor
13. Learn the language, visit the country beforehand & do some business with local people, before deciding to move there. – @culturalrealms
14. Before you move abroad, study the country and its history, read books, and talk with people living there. – @lyceum
15. Give yourself at least a month before you start working, and try to make friends pre-arrival, via web/Twitter. – @SeanJamesOliver
16. Attempt to learn the language & appreciate the way of life of the community you find yourself living. Also, have fun & explore! – @DavidComp
17. Embrace the experience you have, let go of unrealistic expectations. And get lots of sleep. Living in another country means going off cultural autopilot and that can be tiring! - @CateBrubaker
18. People moving abroad should take it seriously (even as permanent resident) and consider all parameters, exactly as investors do. – @MATCOM
19. Visit the place first – @JinanAlrawi
20. Make sure you check your assumptions! Behaviours may be different, and should be interpreted carefully. – @IENsinMB
21. Learn as much as you can before the move, but realize that you won’t learn everything about this new culture even after a year of living there.  Enjoy the experience and have fun. – @CindyKing

2. Don’t rush into it. Do Ur homework (aka research). Hire some1 who knows what U don’t.- @HoeferleConsult
3. Jump in the deep end and go do it. Work with an international company, get involved with international activities, learn and learn – @dkiernan
4. Firstly learn to win in your initial market, understand why you win, understand how internationally direct and thru partners - @dkiernan

10. Develop cultural proficiency: knowing when to listen, when to ask for help and when to speak – @XCulture
11. Treat the world as a big domestic market and be sensitive to it.  I do not mean be homogeneous, but you can’t be limited by thinking inside your borders.  If you want to trade internationally, you cannot perceive there to be a border around your own country. – @jackyan
12. Without language skills, you can’t hope to fully understand the country, its business, and most everyday aspects. – @CotterHUE
13. Come to Canada, it’s all here, we’re host to over 200 cultures… plus, we cross markets every day; it’s a fascinating consumer base ..seriously? advice for those interested in international business: do your research/homework – @DoreenatDMS
14. In another country, trying to speak the language brings many advantages… even if they know yours – @pocketcultures

17. Know about their culture before you pitch in. A friendly gesture in local lingo can remove all the barriers…I’ve witnessed business deals getting finalized simply because both parties gave due respect to each others’ culture. – @mintblogger
18. If you are interested in international business, start to read an international magazine, e.g. The Economist. – @lyceum
19. Learn a new language. It takes years, but depending on translation and interpretation is expensive, and will never capture the whole cultural context of a conversation or relationship. Unless you use @LCWllc ’s translation services, of course. – @SeanJamesOliver
20. Have confidence in what you bring to the table but be flexible with what others bring to the table – @DavidComp
21. For people interested in int’l business…combine cross-cultural experience with learning cross-cultural theory… the theory helps illuminate the experience. Both are important. - @CateBrubaker

21 International Business Tips

Cross-Cultural Twitter Interviews

You need strong cross-cultural skills when you travel or live abroad and when you work or interact often with people from different cultures.

It’s not always easy to develop your cross-cultural skills because it requires a fair amount of personal work to get to know yourself better. But the rewards are often worth the effort.

Here are some tips from the Cross-Cultural Twitter Interview series.

21 Tips To Grow Your Cross-Cultural Skills

1. Understand that EVERYTHING in life is culturally coded from when we were very young. So we all think differently about things: our meanings for things are deeply buried in our unconscious mind, what is a business for? how we think about our boss; what is luxury; quality; love; etc.  Individualism in Far East seen as immaturity- @deborahswallow
2. Research and appreciate the cultural diversity of the market you are preparing to visit before you travel there – @ohh_la_la
3. 1st, understand your OWN culture -> try to be understanding of others’ backgrounds. Now meet half way for common ground.- @HoeferleConsult
4. Visit the countries, get to know the people, try and see the world through their eyes. Learn from the experts including @CindyKing- @dkiernan
5. Immerse yourself deeply into other cultures by living & working in their country for at least six months- @transdomo
6. One tip to improve your cross-cultural skills…Know thyself–>Listen & Observe–>Communicate… in that order! – @culturematters
7. Be less self-righteous than who you are dealing with. The more humble you are, the more you are going to gain.- @PicSeshu
8. Travel, as “bare” as possible. When you are in need of something, you see how people react to your misery. Discovering people when out of your comfort zone is the greatest lesson ever! – @tdebaillon
9. One tip to improve cross-cultural skills is understand your own values & attitudes 1st so you can compare & contrast – @DR4Ward
10. Develop ability 2 appreciate historical backgrounds Honor experiences that might contradict ur way of looking @ life – @XCulture
11. Put yourself in the other culture’s shoes and think about what stereotypes exist about your own culture. – @jackyan
12. Learn a foreign language. Language and culture are so intertwined that… to fully understand the psyche of another nationality, you must know the language… – @CotterHUE
13. Learn another language – @wisequeen
14. Practice patience & never underestimate power of observation & ability to listen; if u make an effort … prepare to be pleasantly surprised; people care about you when you care and are genuinely interested in them – @DoreenatDMS
15. Be flexible when facing different values – try to understand what reasons lie behind other ways of thinking – @pocketcultures
16. Get out there amongst it! As a global village most people have many ethnicities within their community~and then there is the Internet~Skye, chat rooms, online classrooms, forums, blogs, email, video etc – @psitutor
17. Travel & try to understand local cultures. That open minds, changes perspectives & creates cross-cultural skills. – @culturalrealms
18. Adapt to the occasion, learn different languages, respect other cultures AND don’t hesitate to ask. – @mintblogger
19. Take the jump and just “do it,” i.e., travel and move abroad. – @lyceum
20. “Common Sense”, and all our underlying assumptions about everything are learned, and vary between cultures. Interact with different cultures with the knowledge that things you take for granted as true, are not universal. – @SeanJamesOliver
21. Other ways of doing & thinking just might be better so enter with an open mind – @DavidComp
22. I’d say be curious. If you’re curious, you’re observing, listening, questioning, reflecting and learning – @CateBrubaker

21 Tips To Grow Your Cross-Cultural Skills

Cross-Cultural Twitter Interviews

One things that has surprised me over the last few years since I started this blog, is the number of different definitions people use for “international business”. You can read about how I use the term “international business” here.  I’m not saying that it is right and others are wrong. This is simply how I understand the term.  It is important to know what your definition is and how this compares to the definition other people are using.

Why are there different definitions? I think there are differences in the definition of “international business” because some people have different understandings of “business”. For some people throwing a bottle in the ocean equates to “international business”. People don’t always seem to appreciate the two way side of business.

This is why I like to ask this question during my Cross-Cultural Twitter Interviews. It’s always interesting to widen your understanding of how others see the world.

Here are some of the definitions of “international business” I received on Twitter with the 140 character limitation.

What Is International Business?

7. International business is our day to day environment. Every business might be seen with an international bias: conversing and trading values with someone who has a different culture, even if from a different company. – @tdebaillon

9. International business isengaging with emerging markets. These days that’s where capital & real purchasing power are – @XCulture

21 Definitions Of International Business

Cross-Cultural Twitter Interviews

After looking at some great definitions of culture, here are some even shorter definitions. This time in one word only. These are answers from Cross-Cultural Twitter Interviews of the people I recommend you follow on Twitter for cross-cultural and international insights. These Twitter interviews are carried out in the spirit of having fun, so these one word definitions are not to be taken too seriously.

Of course, it’s difficult to come up with a definition of culture that resonates with everyone.  And it’s impossible to come up with a one word definition that appeals to everyone. This is part of the fun and depends on what you see in this one word.  But I do think this exercise helps us to see “culture” from different perspectives and broadens our understanding of how others perceive culture.

This is why I like combining several one word definitions and coming up with different associations to come up with a variety of different meanings.  This helps me to broaden my own understanding of culture.

One of the responses on Twitter was: Culture is Zappos.  Of course, this isn’t the best definition, but it certainly got me thinking.

21 Definitiions Of Culture… In One Word

1. Culture is reflection - @matthewbennett
2. Culture is a CODE - @deborahswallow
3. Culture is Life - @ohh_la_la
4. Culture is communication - @HoeferleConsult
5. Culture is values - @dkiernan
6. Culture is creativity - @transdomo
7. Culture is relative - @culturematters
8. Culture is infrastructure – @tdebaillon
9. Culture is communication – @DR4Ward
10. Culture is awareness – @XCulture
11. Culture is us – @jackyan
12. Culture is vital – @CotterHUE
13. Culture is life – @DoreenatDMS
14. Culture is identity – @pocketcultures

21 Definitions Of Culture In One Word

International Business Development Strategy

There are words I prefer to avoid.  Branding is one.  There is just too much diversity in personal definitions when you talk to people from different cultures.  Today on Twitter, I asked readers to give me their thoughts on another term I like to avoid using.  Here is what I asked:

• Do you see a difference between the term “international business” and the term “global business”? If so, what is it?

There were a  few answers I had to share with you:

• @DR4WARD – Domestic country doing business in neighboring country is international business. Competing on world chessboard is global.
• @deanmeistr -  “Global” sounds more trendy i.e. includes “3rd world” nations automatically, international sounds old-style IMHO.
• @Lenticular_Girl – In media “global” is generic, and overused. The word “global” is going to become as useless as “green” soon in marcomm.
• @SirGrenville – My view is that Global represents a business proposition which is truly that. International any single/multiple transaction.
• @andyatkinskruge – My 2 cents – global and international often imply English-world – you need multinational / multilingual to break that paradigm

These answers are interesting.  I think they are all “correct”.

But why did I ask the question in the first place?

Is The Difference Important?

I often talk to people that have different definitions or conceptions of what an international business is.  These differences are so inbred, that I often find myself totally avoiding the words “international business” to avoid miscommunication.

People contact me because they want to develop their international business.  The miscommunication problems are usually centered around the word “business”.  To me a business has a structure.  At the very minimum there is buying and selling carried out within a defined structure and with certain processes.

You cannot say you have an international business until you have a clearly defined structure to carry out your buying and selling.

What Is Global?

With internet, there is an additional monkey wrench.  Everyone tends to think they have an international company just because they say they are willing to sell to people abroad.  Often this means that the people abroad have to come looking for them too.  all to often there is no business, just a bright shiny desire to sell abroad.

This is where two people can think they are speaking about the same thing, when in fact they are not.  The problem gets more complicated when people say that global business and international business is the same thing.  In a general conversation this can be true, to some extent.  But it is not true when you are talking about international business.

My Definition Of International Business

I tend to use two different definitions for the term “international business”, depending on what I am talking about.

• General meaning – Any business that has international clients – buyers and sellers located in different countries.
• Specific meaning – To differentiate from an export company, an international company takes country-specific marketing and sales actions to sell their products in different countries.

And because of the difficulties I have in communicating with some clients, I try my best to avoid the term “global business”.  The term “global business”  just opens a can of worms.

Differences In Communication

In reality, I can use whatever definition I want to for “international business”, and I will always have a communication issue to deal with if the other person does not understand my definition.

This also goes for you and your definition of the term “international business”.

• Be sure others understand, and continue to understand your definition of international business.

In my experience, it is also wise not to interchange your use the term “global business” and “international business”.  In fact I do not even use the term “global business” with anyone I speak to about “international business”.  The word “global” can trigger different definitions and change the discussion.

The question of vocabulary may seem like an innocent one.  There are dictionaries after all.  The truth is that vocabulary does make a big difference in how others understand you. In different countries, words can take on slightly different meanings. Yes, even when you speak in English.
