EXERCICE A
AUDIO FILE TIME CODE 1:11:53
TRACK 1.44

There are many, many examples of culture shock, andl er, many of those really come about because people haven't prepared
themselves well enough. So examples of that might be timing, where in some cultures the concept and perception of
timekeeping is very differentl and I guess the obvious one that people always use is the example oflhe Middle East. The
Middle Eastern dock really revolves around two things really - the prayer times and of
course, because they were desert travellers, about the movements of the sun and the moonl er, during periods of the day.

Um, other examples is where, abrain around time, where) perhaps from a Latin culture's perspective, um, it's about building
relationships before you actually get down to, to business. Now very often Westernl and particularly American,
bUSinesspeople find that very frustrating. For Americans, time is mone)" and so they'll be very keen to actually ... er,
the salesman will be very keen to get out his sales literature and start exalting the virtues of the product he's trying to sell
yOll, er, they'll try to get on with the agenda as quickJy as possible, whereas) particularly in Latin cultures and also in people
like Chinese cultures, relationship building is very important. They'll want to entertain you for sure, and very often invite you
back to their home, and all this before they actually want to sit down and do business with you because, in the Latin culture,
they are making judgements about you as an individual, as to, as to whether you're the kind ofperson that they want to do
business with.
PAGE 67 MARKET LEADER/ CULTURES
EXERCICE B TRACK 1.45. TIME CODE 1:13:15

I : Are some people better suited for international business than others?
JT : Absolutely - er, what companies still tend to do is select people for international business and business aSSignments, er,
purely based on their skill set. So ifyou're the best civil engineer or you're the greatest IT consultant in the bUSiness, it is often
thought that this fully equips you to be the best person to conduct that business internationally. Clearly those skills arc very
important, but they have to be underpinned by, I think, a number of personal traits that make you a more effective
international businessperson.
Some of those traits - um, adaptability: you have got to be prepared to adapt the way that you do business or adapt your
expectations or your needs, to meet the needs of the culture ofthc people that you're doing business with - so adaptability;
flexibility is obviously very important. Er, you've got to be prepared to actually change the parameters with which you were
intending to do business.
PAGE 67 MARKET LEADER/ CULTURES
EXERCICE C TRACK 1.46. TIME CODE 1:14:50

Very important - and you'll know from this course in communication - um, you've got to be a good listener. Er, you've got to
pay more attention than you would when speaking to somebody in your own culture to make sure that you have understood
quite clearly what is being said. And one of the things that we always say to people is that, to be very sure that you’ve
actually heard what you think you·ve heard. There arc some steps )'OU can take. It's always a very good idea to get the
individual, if you're not clear, to repeat what they've said. It may seem tedious to you, but actually it's very important to
make sure that you haven't made mistakes.

I think also one of the key features orthe successful international bUSinessperson is to be non-judgemental.
For instance, if you're coming from an Asian culture, er, to try and do business with, er, a Western culture, er, for certain
the way that people do things will be fundamentally different - er, the hierarchy, the structure, the decision-making process,
the seniority and the influence of the people you're doing business with - will be fundamentally different. Er, you may not
agree, you may not approve of the way that business is done in another culture; but the way that people do business in
that culture is as a result of many, many years of, of development and so you will have to be accepting, er, that it may be
not to your liking and it may be different, but it is not wrong.

À connaître Certains verbes, dits 'action verbs', peuvent être conjugués aux temps progressifs

My mother is cooking dinner now(action en cours)/My father cooks dinner on

Sundays (habitude)

Les 'non action verbs' ou 'stative verbs’ ou « non-continuous verbs » sont ceux
qui expriment :
-une idée abstraite :be, believe,know, need, understand,
remember, think, imagine, forget, mean, exist...
-les émotions : like, dislike, love, hate, fear, envy, care...
REVISIONS GRAMMAIRE
VERBES D’ACTION ET -la perception : hear, see, feel, smell, taste, sound, seem…
VERBES D’ETAT -la possession : own, have, belong, possess..

La plupart des « stative verbs » ne peuvent s’employer à une forme progressive

on dit : I love my mother (et non : I am loving my mother)
On dit : I need a new car (et non : I am needing a new car)

Certains de ces verbes peuvent avoir plusieurs sens, il arrive alors que l'on puisse
utiliser les formes progressives
Ex : Sarah looks beautiful ( Sarah est jolie)
Mais : The detective is looking for a clue ( le détective est en train de chercher un
indice)
