Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 2,0, University of Glamorgan, language: English, abstract: This report provides an analysis and evaluation of the significance of a study about cultural diversity in cross-border business. Additionally, it identifies the possible advantages and disadvantages that companies will be confronted by when deciding to sell internationally. The method of analysis for this report included a review of the current literature available in libraries and on the internet. The major findings indicate that an understanding of cultural diversity is of paramount importance in order to be successful in exporting, since people's behaviour and tastes differ widely from country to country. Thus, culture has a strong impact on communication, products and their promotion. Conducting a study regarding culture enable companies to meet consumer needs, to use the marketing mix more efficiently and to set up successful foreign network channels. On the other hand, by exporting, firms may meet the challenges of face to face communication with foreign people, collaborating with foreign counterparts and convincing foreign consumers about its products. Beyond this, the company should overcome the temptation of ethnocentrism and adapt their business method to local requirements. This report finds that despite many future challenges the prospects for exporting entities are positive, if they thoroughly prepare themselves for conducting cross-border business. In detail, they should conduct a study concerning culture which should be included in a PEST framework (political, economic, social and technological analysis). Firms should, based on the culture and PEST analysis, adapt its business method to each culture. Moreover, employees should be prepared to engage in international business. They should be able to speak different languages and handle diverse cultures effecti

Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,7, Pforzheim University (Pforzheim Graduate School - Master in Business Administration & Engineering), course: International Management 1, language: English, abstract: Different people on our earth have already had all kinds of contacts with each other at the beginning of our history. As early as the antique the Greeks for instance already traded with the other nations or the Spanish exploited the original inhabitants of Middle and South America in the 15th/16th century because of their gold. Now it doesn’t matter if it was because of armed conflicts or prosperous trade; there was ever an interest on the other party respectively the other culture. People ever tried to get information which they could use for their own advantages. An example for this is a plate of ethnology in the Austrian museum for ethnology in Vienna created at the beginning of the 18th century which should give people an impression of foreign cultures. There are different people (nations) showed in the plate: Spanish, French, Italians, Germans, English, Swedes, Poles, Hungarians, Russians, Turks and Greeks. The very negative description on the Turks probably because that the Austrian had bad experiences during the siege of Vienna in 1683. These „literary treasures“ are more influenced by prejudices and stereotypes than by scientific knowledge and today they just makes people laugh about. Today people try for instance to realize the advantages for their business relations by trying to understand the foreign cultures of their business partners. From this point of view the German proverb “other countries, other customs” (in German: “andere Länder, andere Sitten”) is quite true and it’s very important to know to which things the other party attaches great importance and in which way they act in negotiations. For instance Italians are known as smart negotiating partners who have a tendency to improvisation; Brits are known as fair negotiating partners who keep exact to their schedules while French interpret their schedules more generous, but they are seldom unpunctual. About this subject Fons Trompenaars wrote finally a book with the title: “Riding the waves of Culture”. In this book he shows how cultural differences affect the business life and the management. The report is also based on this book but doesn’t contain the study of the corporate cultures.

Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, Berlin School of Economics and Law, course: Work Business and Society, language: English, abstract: This term paper explores the effect of culture on international business. In order to do so, it first evaluates the influence of national culture and then the influence of corporate culture on international management. In the end it presents and analyzes a new framework which argues that these two types of culture interrelate and that both shape international management practices. In 2010 Wal-Mart Inc. has been the world’s top retailer with revenues of US$ mil 405,046. However, they have never managed to establish Wal-Mart Germany since they have entered the market in late 1997. They left the market with huge losses in 2006. “In Germany, analysts say, Wal-Mart never got traction in a market characterized by unrelenting price competition, well-established discounters and the cultural resistance of German shoppers to hypermarkets, which sell fresh vegetables a few aisles away from lawn mowers.”

Culture, once a center-stage concept in anthropology, is now being discussed by talk show personalities and journalists and included in a wide range of academic disciplines. In view of the myriad uses and abuse of the concept, The Relevance of Culture sets the record straight through a careful survey of the development of the concept of culture, and the arguments and continuing relevance of it to theoretical discussions. The authors illustrate its roles in such diverse areas as risk and technology, nursing and health care, evolution, criminology, information, economy, geography, and even the uneven the understanding of suicide. Noted shcolars apply their wit and wisdom to illustrate and analyze the role of culture, creating a definitive picture for scholars, beginning students of cultural anthroplogy, and related social sciences.
