If you are a woman, be sure to verify, standard practices beforehand. Are there any standard culturally specific negotiating pr

29、actices? Remember to ask for advice prior to cross-cultural negotiations. If you feel you will be in a more different environment than you are used to you have two options to consider. One, hire local representation. Some large multi-national companies hire local company representatives to facilitat

30、e all business procedures in certain countries in the Middle East and the Far East. Two, arrange for a local third party to accompany you.

36、ittle and learn to meet another culture in the area where you both feel comfortable. It is about knowing when to ask discretely for feedback to make sure you are all on the same path.
