国际商务活动中间的跨文化交流

国际商务活动中间的跨文化交流

案例一:语言障碍
上个世纪八十年代,曾经有一位美国教授来华访问。在华讲学三个月回去 之后,得到的结论竟是:“中国人不尊重知识和学术”。究其原因,是因 为他在中国的三个月之中,有很多中国人称呼他为“戴维斯先生”。这位 学者是一位科学家,自从年轻时获得博士学位之后,在后来的几十年中, 美国人均以“戴维斯博士”或“戴维斯教授”来称呼他,中国人叫他“戴 维斯先生”时,他常浑然不觉是在叫自己。他还对中国人说:“你可以正 式地称呼我为教授,也可亲切地称呼我为博士,或者是把我当作朋友,直 接叫我的名字,但是不要叫我先生。”但是每每遇到陌生的中国人时,称 之“戴维斯先生”者十之八九。他感觉非常不舒服,觉得中国人在故意贬 低他,郁闷三个月之后,得出了“中国人不尊重知识和学术”的结论。但 是,从中国人的角度上看,在中国传统文化中“先生”这个称呼是用于对 高级学者的尊称,早在春秋战国时代开始,“先生”这个称谓就是对大教 育家、大思想家和学者文人的尊称,如“屈原先生”、“鲁迅先生”、 “蔡元培先生”等等。中国人称“戴维斯先生”,并不是把他当作一般男 士看待,其实是很尊重他的,这就是文化差异所导致的误解。幸好当时戴 维斯先生还没有听到有中国人叫他“戴老”——在中国称“老”是极为尊 敬之意,美国人听来就是在侮辱他、嫌弃他年龄大不中用了。

• “跨文化交流”的英语名称是“cross-cultural communication (或inter-cultural communication)”。它指本族语者与 非本族语者之间的交际, 也指任何在语言和文化背景方 面有差异的人们之间的交际。国际商务活动中间的跨文 化交流通俗来说就是如果你和外国人打交道做生意(由 于存在语言和文化背景的差异),应该注意什么问题, 应该如何得体地去交流。 • 跨文化交流通常可分为两种形式:语言交际和非语言交 际。其中,语言交际又分为口头语言交际和书面语言交 际两种。非语言交际主要是通过体态语进行的沟通交流, 包括人们的表情、眼神、手势、视线接触、站姿、坐姿 等等。服装也是人们传达信息的非语言方式之一。所有 这些,都是交往个体向对方传递思想、信息和情感的外 在形式。通常,双方都希望沟通交流能够顺利、成功, 但很多时候,因为语言的差异和非语言习惯的不同,使 得双方的交流存在很多障碍,甚至因为双方的文化背景 差异而导致了双方的误解。

商务英语专业的跨文化交流技巧

商务英语专业的跨文化交流技巧

商务英语专业的跨文化交流技巧在全球化的背景下,商务英语专业的学生需要具备跨文化交流的能力。

这是因为在国际商务中,涉及到各种不同文化背景的人员之间的合作和交流。

跨文化交流技巧是商务英语专业学生必备的核心能力之一。

本文将介绍几种跨文化交流技巧以及如何应用于商务环境中。

一、了解文化差异并尊重对方文化在跨文化交流中,了解不同文化差异是十分重要的。

不同国家和地区有着不同的价值观、行为习惯和社会礼仪。

一个国家的文化可能认为某些行为是正常的,而在另一个国家却可能被视为不礼貌或冒犯。

因此,商务英语专业的学生应该对不同国家的文化进行学习和了解,并尊重对方的文化习惯。

其次,在与对方交流时,要避免使用可能引起误解或冲突的言辞和行为。

举个例子,有些国家的人觉得直接表达自己的意见是一种勇敢和诚实的表现,而另外一些国家的人则认为这是不恰当的行为。

因此,在商务交流中,适度地倾听和尊重对方的观点和意见是非常重要的。

二、注意语言和口音的影响语言是跨文化交流中最常用的工具。

商务英语专业的学生需要具备良好的英语口语和听力技巧。

然而,不同国家和地区的人们习惯使用不同的口音和方言,这可能导致沟通障碍。

因此,在跨文化交流中,需要注意以下几点:首先,尽量提前了解对方的语言习惯和偏好。

例如,有些国家的人习惯使用姓氏来称呼对方,而有些国家则更偏好用名字称呼。

了解这些细节可以帮助商务英语专业的学生更好地与对方进行沟通。

其次,注意清晰地表达自己的意思,避免使用复杂的词汇或者长句子。

简洁而明确的表达能够使对方更容易理解。

最后,尽量避免使用俚语、口头禅和幽默,因为它们可能在不同文化背景下产生误解或引起困惑。

三、倾听和理解他人观点跨文化交流中,倾听和理解他人观点是十分重要的。

商务英语专业的学生应该充分发挥自己的倾听技巧,并给予对方足够的尊重和关注。

在进行商务谈判或会议时,倾听和理解对方观点的能力可以帮助双方建立良好的合作关系。

同时,商务英语专业的学生需要学会提问和寻求澄清。

Unit Seven Time and Space Across CulturesI.Warm Up1. Please read the story on page 156. What can we learn from the story?2. Go to answer the questions on Group Work (p235-236) and find out your sense of time?Supplement: Additional materialsII.ChronemicsChronemics is the study of how people perceive and use time.(i) The sense of time:1) Time is linear线形. Western cultures think time is linear — aflow from the past to the present to the future.2) Time is cyclical周期的. Life on earth evolved in response to thecycles of day and night and the ebb and flow潮涨潮落of thetides.(ii) Monochronic出现一次and Polychronic Time (p256-257)1. What is M-Time and P-Time? Which do you think is thedominating time system in our culture?1) Monochronic time means paying attention to and doing only onething at a time – events scheduled as separate items.2) Polychronic time means being involved with many things at once.2. What is the philosophy哲学underlying each of the time system?1) P-time stresses involvement of people and completion完成oftransactions事务rather than adherence to遵守present schedules. Appointments are not taken as seriously and, as a consequence, are frequently broken. P-time is treated as less tangible有形地than M-time.Weakness: Matters in a polychromic多彩的culture seem in a constant state 恒定常态of flux. Appointments are frequently broken.2) In M-time system, social and business life is commonly schedule-dominated. By scheduling, we compartmentalize划分; this makes it possible to concentrate on 集中注意one thing at a time, but it also reduces the context. M-time is also tangible. M-time scheduling is used as a classification system that orders life.Weakness: Life in general is at times unpredictable. M-time reduces the context and alienate使疏远people from themselves and from others.(iii) The Heartbeat of Culture (p229-232)1.What does the author want to tell us from his experience in Braziland the questionnaire between students in Niteroi and those in Fresno?In Brazil, people seem to be very flexible in their concepts of time and punctuality. Brazilians are likely to attribute lateness for appointments to unforeseen circumstances 意外情况that the person couldn’t control. They seem less inclined to倾向于feel personallyresponsible for being late. So they express less regret for their own lateness and blame others less when others are late.The Brazilian students believed that a person who is consistently late is probably more successful than one who is consistently on time.They seemed to accept the idea that someone of status is expected to arrive late. Lack of punctuality is a badge标记of success.2.There aren’t unanimous全体一致perceptions of time时间知觉among culturally different people. Even within one country, ideas of time and punctuality vary considerably from place to place.Different regions and even cities have their own distinct rhythms and rules.3.Appreciating cultural differences in time sense becomes increasinglyimportant as modern communications put more and more people in daily contact. If we are to avoid misreading issues that involve time perceptions, we need to understand better our own cultural biases偏见and those of others.※American Concept of Time: (See Case 25)III.Proxemics人际距离学A fascinating area in the nonverbal world of body language is that of spatial relationships空间关系, or proxemics, the study of man's appreciation and use of space. As a species, man is highly territorial but we are rarely aware of it unless our space is somehow violated. Spatialrelationships and territorial boundaries directly influence our daily encounters. Maintaining control over such space is a key factor in personal satisfaction; observing spatial interactions in everyday life is a key to personal awareness.(i)The study of proxemics includes three aspects of space: (a) fixed features of space. (b) semifixed features of space, and (c) personal space(a) fixed features of spaceFixed feature space is characterized by unmovable boundaries, like divisions within an office building. Architecture and spacing of buildings also belong to this aspect of space.For example, a person in the United States can drive on a highway for miles and never see a sign of people or dwellings民居. Therefore, he may be amazed at the closeness of people in China.Intercultural communicators need to realize that cultures have alternative approaches变换方法to space and ways of using it.(b) semifixed 半固定features of spaceSemifixed features of space refer to spatial arrangements of movable objects within a room, such as furniture arrangement and seating.1. furniture arrangement :French space is a reflection of French culture. Everything is centralized集中的, and spatially the entire country is laid outaround centers.In Germany, where privacy is stressed, office furniture is spread throughout the office.In Japan, where group participation is encouraged, many desks are arranged hierarchically分等级的in the center of a large, common room absent of walls.Chinese geomancy,feng shui, is the art of arranging the physical environment to establish harmony with the natural environment to achieve happiness, prosperity, and health.2. seatingIn the United States, they tend to talk with those opposite them rather than those seated or stand beside them.The Chinese often experience uneasiness when they face someone directly or sit on opposite side of a desk or table from someone.(c) personal space or private space (p239-241)1. Behavioral study indicates that individuals perceive a distance that is appropriate for different types of messages; they also establish a comfortable distance for personal interaction and nonverbally define this as their personal space. Research supports the hypothesis 假设that the violation违反侵害of this personal space can have serious adverse effects不利影响on communication. Thus, if an individual is to be mutually 互相satisfied in a communication encounter his/herpersonal space must be respected. Should an intruder侵入者invade 侵略干扰this personal space while also trespassing 擅自进入within territorial boundaries he placed himself in double jeopardy双重负担and must compensate 弥补for the other's increased anxiety.2. The differences among Americans, the India, the Japanese and the ArabIn the United States, Hall reports that psychologists have identified four zones from which U.S. people interact: the intimate zone亲密区, the personal zone, the social zone, and the public zone.The study of spatial territory for the purpose of communication uses four categories for informal space: the intimate distance for embracing or whispering (6-18 inches), the personal distance for conversations among good friends (1.5-4 feet), social distance for conversations among acquaintances (4-12 feet), and public distance used for public speaking (12 feet or more).intimate distance ranging from direct contact to about 45cm, which applies to the closest relationships such as husband and wifepersonal distance ranging from 45 to 80cm, which is usually maintained for conversations between friends & relativessocial distanceranging from 1.3to 2 meters, which covers peoplewho work together or are meeting at social gatheringspublic distance such as that kept between a lecturer and his audienceIn India, there are elaborate rules about how closely members of each caste印度的社会等级may approach other castes.In Japan, the private bubble and the personal space are more a creation of the mind than an actual existence真实存在. The Japanese connect privacy with mental space. In crowds each Japanese becomes an island and he is alone as long as he does not acknowledge any of the other people.In Arab, Arabs of the same sex do stand much closer than North Americans. An Arab entering an elevator may stand right next to another person and be touching even though no one else is in the elevator.(ii) TerritorialityTerritoriality refers to how space can be used to communicate messages. Territorial claims differ from personal space in that the personal zone accompanies the individual while territoriality is relatively stationary固定的. Semi-fixed feature space is often the criteria标准used to establish a territory within any environment; it becomes a man's safety zone where he rests from the rigors严格of defending personal space from invasion, thedramatic or sudden entry into another's personal zone. Humans, like animals, indicate their ownership of this established territory and will consequently defend it against all invasions. Territoriality is established so rapidly that even the second session 会话in a series of lectures讲座is sufficient to find most of the audience returning to their same seats. And if one has been sitting in a particular seat and someone else occupies it, one can notice a fleeting 短暂的irritation.Compare the differences among the cultures of the countries mentioned in “Home in Various Cultures” (p244-247).America: showing visitors around home; people are not allowed to lock doors except the bathroom door; kitchen is the place for negotiation between the mother and the children; the parents’ bedroom is mostly off-limits.Germany: requires a wide area of privacy, formal and regimented; doors are firmly shut between rooms; an entrance hall 门廊to lead visitors into the house without showing specific rooms and spoiling the family’s privacy.Northern European countries: rude if not call in advance; not to expect the tour of the host’s home.France: never drop in unannounced; no tour of the house; guests are usually received in the living room, with the doors to the other rooms closed.Italy: you can drop in anytime without calling first, except for the resting hours of 2:00 to 4:00 pm.Spain: call ahead; normal visiting hours are 4:00 to 6:00 pm.Latin American countries: guests, even dropping in without warning, are greeted warmly, often with hugs and kisses; to communicate in the dining room.The Middle Eastern countries: the layout of the salon;IV.Case Study: Students are required to read the cases given carefully and try to analyse them from the viewpoint of IC.。
