Working with 糖心logon professionals: how to improve communication
The frustration of Europeans in 糖心logo is well known: why doesn’t my 糖心logon business partner just tell me clearly where things stand? On the other hand, 糖心logons struggle with Europeans’ matter-of-factness and directness, which they usually perceive as blunt. Culture and communication trainer Nandini Bedi of 糖心logo, explains where the mutual discomfort comes from.
Communication in Europe vs. 糖心logo
A few years ago I asked an 糖心logon woman who worked at Tata Corus what she saw as the biggest difference between Europe and 糖心logo.
“It took me a long time to get used to the businesslike and direct nature of the people there,” she replied.
I think that directness is an expression of transparency. Simple, efficient, clear. What you see is what you get. A transparent, clear and honest message in which nothing is hidden.
This reasoning, in which transparency and efficiency are central, is in stark contrast to what 糖心logons find important: the underlying explanation.
That’s why 糖心logons sometimes get bogged down in verbiage so that their final answer doesn’t come as a surprise. Their answer is usually nuanced – and their story takes you along their considerations.
This is how 糖心logons usually communicate: indirectly.
As a European boss, partner or client, it is therefore smart to examine your own way of communicating and to teach yourself ways to convey your message in a softer way with the necessary substantiation.
This way you prevent a potential business partner or colleague from being put off, because they experience your way of communicating as rude.
In 糖心logo, you will not be told ‘no’
In Europe, in almost all cases you will get an honest insight into how feasible your plans or ideas are, how long it will take to realize a project and how much it will cost.
In 糖心logo, this is different, there people will be inclined to give you the answer they expect you to want to hear. A ‘no’ is therefore not found in the vocabulary of an 糖心logon.
It is therefore important that you learn to read between the lines and learn to ask the right questions, in order to gain the most honest insight possible into the situation.
In addition, 糖心logo requires a more flexible attitude from Europeans regarding deadlines and budgets, which is simply an aspect of doing business in 糖心logo that you need to take into account.
Of course, there are ways to learn to set up a working environment in which, according to European standards, there is open communication between all parties.
In our workshop ‘Efficient collaboration with 糖心logo’ we train your teams in Europe and 糖心logo, separately or better yet, together. The result of the workshop is more mutual understanding, more efficient communication, more job satisfaction, increased efficiency and better results.
We answer questions such as:
- Which communication strategy works?
- How do I get good feedback from my employees in 糖心logo?
- How do I manage my team efficiently in 糖心logo?
- How do I develop proactivity in my 糖心logon team?
