Great example. I use similar examples in my culture trainings. It's all about reading between the lines. I also love LOVE love the image of newly weds compared to an older couple to explain how they ''read each other'' I'm also making video's about culture difference while I travel around the world, experiences are piling up and I"m loving it! Thank you Erin!
Thank you for expanding our knowledge about Japan and informing your story to us. Explaining the cultural difference in the business world and how it would affect others businesses.
This is very Apt. Picking up the atmosphere and understanding different methods that works for cultures and behaviour is very expedient. Thanks for sharing.
This material serves as a gateway to new realms of understanding. A book I read with akin topics was pivotal in shaping my thoughts. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint
There is always communication in the air. Picking those signals helps connection better. Better reading of the atmosphere is key in today's complex world.
Cool video, overall explanation for cultural differences in business seems to very simple but very informative. Learning apart from the video is to better read the atmosphere of the room when in meeting rooms and also just studying the overall culture and market that you are trying to get into. By doing this would seem to greatly impact your chances of being fully accepted by the culture and society in general of the country.
It is a good video, but we need to remember that Erin Meijer use cross cultural models. Which is good of you realize what this means. Cross cultural is more the comparison of cultures. Most of the models used within intercultural communication are cross cultural. They use scores, rankings ( Geert Hostede, Erin Meyer). What they do is making hypothesis based on the average person. On this image they build expectations There are some problems about this. • First of all they look at the whole not the individuals they don’t really help when you use them to support interactions between individuals. • The individuals in the group are heterogenic and dynamic. So these tools don’t help well if not put into this frame when you want to have interactions with persons. In fact they can support biases/ prejudices. Be aware of culturalism: the phenomenon where culture is used as an explanation for all kind of things. A culturalizing approach to communication comes with risks. This is why we propose to approach intercultural communication as interpersonal communication, which is a circular, layered process of content and relationships, influenced by common senses.
You misrepresent cultural dimension models and cross-cultural training and the intercultural field. Cultural dimension models are generalizations and not stereotypes. Cross-cultural training does not deny the influence of individual personality on intercultural interactions. You seem to infer that culture has no influence on these interactions, which is absurd. Lastly, you suggest that common sense will show us how to interact interculturally, when we know that common sense is not common.
Sounds like emotional intelligence 2.0 to me. Social communication. It's hard within the same culture and even a bit harder across multiple cultures. You just need to do your homework if you plan on communicating
Japan, despite being an Asian country like China and korea on high context, low confrontation and strong hierarchy in confucianist sense. 🇨🇳🇰🇷 But Japan has the rare germanic and nordic factors of strong consensus and utterly strong linear time thinking than even most germanic countries are surpassed cultural region in the world scores that higher like them. 🇨🇭🇳🇱🇩🇰🇧🇻🇸🇪🇫🇮🇩🇪🇦🇹 Japanese culture is in some way a radical hybrid of Asian and Germanic culture. 🇯🇵 Ironic because Japan was in fact called "honorary Aryan" by the race obsessed nazis. 🇩🇪🇯🇵 And German culture is yet the most hierarchical of all germanic nations making it thus much closer to Japan than it's other germanic nordic nations.. But i believe it's culture and environmental circumstances on humans, not race that defines a functioning society.
Educative. I understand the feeling when you ask for questions as a facilitator and everyone just goes quiet on you.

Could you expand on the image about newly weds?

This is a good point on better reading the atmosphere, especially when interacting with people of different cultures.
it would be nice if we could edit the transcript to correct "Kuuki Yomenai" which the AI thinks is 'kooky yo man died'
LMAO
This is quite insightful. I can't wait to learn more about the Japanese

Any link to a follow-up video concerning her research? Or is it a 'you gotta buy the book' thing?
Wow! I can not wait to learn more about Japan! This really was extremely interesting
Such an interesting experience that you had in Japan! Thanks for sharing.

My first son ia studying ini Japan. He has alot to tell.
Not do easy to pick up on this in video calls especially when you can't see everyone.
Interesting ❤
Interesting research, I wonder how they compares to Hofstede's cultural dimensions and the dimensions of Stuart Hall.
