SynopsisThis complete guide to personal and business etiquette in Mexico and Latin America gives practical advice on greetings and communication styles as well as business and social protocol, dress codes, dining and drinking styles, and many other crucial areas., Der ultimative Benimm-Leitfaden für Geschäftsreisende und Urlauber in Mexiko und Lateinamerika. Ein umfassender Katalog über Verhaltensregeln, Sitten und Gebräuche der jeweiligen Länder. Mit einer Fülle praktischer Ratschläge zu Begrü ung, Anrede und Kommunikationsformen, zu gesellschaftlichen Regeln und Gepflogenheiten, zur Kleiderordnung, zu Speise- und Trinkregeln und -zeremonien sowie zu einer Vielzahl anderer wichtiger Themen. Der unverzichtbare "Knigge" für alle Geschäfts- und Urlaubsreisende, die im Gastland keineswegs durch schlechtes Benehmen auffallen wollen. Geschrieben von Dean Foster, einem international führenden Experten auf dem Gebiet multikultureller Fragen., ∗ Country-by-country protocols and customs ∗ International business musts and faux pas ∗ Dining, hosting, gift giving, and more ∗ Cross-cultural explorations Did you know: ∗ In Brazil, the U.S. thumb-to-forefinger gesture for "okay" is vulgar? ∗ In Mexico, you should not refer to people who live in the United States as "Americans"? In today's high-stakes, highly charged international business world, you simply can't afford a misunderstood gesture, an ill-placed word, or a misinformed judgment. The Global Etiquette Guide to Mexico and Latin America shows both business and leisure travelers how to understand, appreciate, and manage-- as well as maximize the benefits of-- the myriad cultural differences that can exist between you and your Latin American business hosts. This fact-filled cultural guidebook provides detailed advice on: ? Dining ? Drinking ? Speaking ? Eye contact ? Hailing a taxi ? Dress ? Negotiating ? Gift giving ? Conducting a meeting ? Tipping ? Holidays ? Dealing with authorities Just as customs vary greatly between Latin America and the United States, so do they vary among the diverse nations of Latin America. What is proper and expected in Argentina, for example, may be a deal-breaker in Venezuela. The Global Etiquette Guide to Mexico and Latin America will familiarize you with the customs, habits, tastes, and mores of every key Latin American nation-- over thirty in all-- and help you guarantee the mutual respect and acceptance that are vital for keeping every international business relationship agreeable, effective, and successful. Wiley's Global Etiquette Series provides the practical information you need to travel and conduct business in foreign countries and cultures. Each easy-to-navigate reference book is filled with helpful hints, do's and don'ts, and other rules of the road for travelers of all types., Authored by one of the world's leading cross-cultural experts. * Invaluable for both business and leisure travelers. * Comprehensive and practical coverage.
