The pandemic has opened big #opportunities for #businesses to connect to different countries without the limits of physical distance. But some executives might have concerns about how to negotiate in this digital era. Starting with a #cultural meeting can help set the tone of the relationship in the business.
Gurjeet Chima, the Advisor for Cross-Cultural Communication of #TCPGrowth, opens her TCP video series by reminding us of the importance of building a personal #rapport to win negotiations. She gives us two initial tips to easily build rapport:
- Smile. Even with differences in languages, we all feel the warmth of a genuine smile, so make sure to flash those pearly whites.
- Understand each other’s cultures. Learning how to greet people in their local language goes a long way in making #authenticrelationships.
