50 common cultural mistakes made in business are presented in the form of short conversations which show that there’s always a reason why people do the strange things they do, the reason is almost never to upset you, and there’s always a way round.

The Art of Doing Business Across Cultures presents five brief, unsuccessful conversational exchanges between Americans and their business colleagues in 10 different locations-the Arab Middle East, Brazil, China, England, France, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, and Russia.
