The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with
knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-culture communication. Americans, however, have not
been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in
negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterpart.
Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It
involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must
understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. Trang 3/5


In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and
impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multimillion-
dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s
role becomes that of an impersonal purveyor of information and cash, an image that succeeds only in
undermining the negotiation.
In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been indentified that may serve to confirm
this stereotypical perception, while subverting the negotiator's position. Two traits in particular that cause
cross-culture misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of American negotiator.
Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the
other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time
in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions
without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator.
Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of
negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must
put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.
