  Cultural differences on International Business negotiations

The business negotiations under different cultural conditions come to cultural negotiations. With the economic globalization and the frequent business contacts, cultural differences seem to be very important. In the process of our negotiations it is very important to know the different Culture in different countries and the ways to avoid the culture conflicts in the international business negotiations.

The reasons for the differences in culture are various, the main source of cultural differences is the following aspects.

First is the regional differences. Regional differences between different geographical areas due to the geographical environment, the level of economic development and traditional customs differences, people often have different language, life style and interests. And these will affect their behavior. Second is the ethnic differences, it is refers to the different ethnic groups in the development of long time, which formed their language, customs and habit. Third is Political difference, difference in Political is due to the different political system and policy on every country, it’s uniform standard the behavior of people, so people in different countries have differences in the political idea the economic difference must not be ignored ,it is due to the economic factors of cultural differences a reflection. For example, the life of people in western developed countries is rich, the education level is high, but in the third world, people are far more concerned with food and clothing problems. In addition, religious differences is also very important on International Business negotiations.

Culture difference have broad and deep influence on International Business negotiations, different culture naturally will be divided into different groups of people, the region belong to the difference groups have different cultural groups that tendency to alienate each other. So ask negotiator to accept one another's culture, and through the cultural difference, know each other's purpose and behavior, and let the other party to accept themselves, finally agreement on the agreement.

How to deal with the international business negotiations of the cultural differences, the most important is we should admit and inclusive cultural differences.

First we should understand all possible cultural differences before negotiations. The work include understand negotiation background and generate strategy of concede. All of these preparations must be considered possible cultural differences. For example, the layout aspects of the cultural difference to cooperation may have a little influence. In the hierarchy is heavy culture, if the room arrangement is not appropriate, more informal, may cause each other's upset or even angry.

Second, in the process of negotiations we should handle the cultural differences correctly example the selection of language use on the negotiations is based on the different culture, in the western countries, we must take export-oriented communication, as far as possible with simple, clear and frank expression of their thoughts. Secondly, the way in the negotiations also should be pay more attention. For example, in the negotiations between the United States and China, As the Chinese people's mode of thinking is the overall orientation, and the American people affected by analysis the influence of the thinking mode, they pay more attention to the logical relationship between the things. Therefore, we often solve the problems step by step, and the final agreement is a series of small agreement combined.

The last we should do is do subsequent communication about cultural differences well afternegotiations. In some eastern culture countries, such as Japan, they think it is very important to keep in touch with customers after negotiations.

The above analysis the cultural differences and the influence of international business negotiation, any negotiator international business negotiations should pay much attention for it. Cultural differences is objective existence, the attitude of the individual or group to decide sorting by the pillow to provide.

  有關商務英語談判中存在問題的幾點探討

摘 要: 隨著我國經濟的飛速發展,外貿成為我國國民經濟的重要支柱之一。我國的經濟實力不斷增強,很多實力較強且富有競爭力的企業將自己的未來計劃訂到了國外,非常看重國外市場,使得我國外貿出口總額逐年累加,外貿活動日益頻繁。英語是世界上使用最廣泛的語言,在對外貿易中佔據重要地位,在國際貿易談判中發揮關鍵作用。在當今的大環境下,商務英語談判還需要進一步發展,創新在校教學課程,解決中西方文化差異給商務英語談判帶來的困難,掌握商務英語談判中所需要的技巧等。

當今經濟全球化,每一個國家都是世界經濟鏈條中不可缺少的部分,即使如此我們還是會面臨各式各樣的挑戰,社會對商務英語談判者的要求越來越高,不同的國家有不同的風俗,中西方的文化差異是其中一個很難解決的問題,在校的商務英語談判教育需要創新,以提高商務英語談判者的素質,多多運用正確的談判技巧,因為談判過程中需要注意的問題還有很多。

一、在校教育課程的創新

商務英語談判是現今實用性較高的一門學科,越來越受學生的追捧。但由於課程教授的難度較高,學生的學習與實際應用無法對應,導致這門學科的在校教育存在侷限性。

1.口語的情境化練習。

英語口語是商務英語談判學習的最基礎的內容,學生的基礎參差不齊,這就給教學帶來困難。為了照顧到每一個學生,教師可以採取情景化的方法訓練學生的口語。根據不同學生的情況設定不同談判情景進行練習,由簡單到困難,難度係數逐步加大,對學生不僅僅是一種練習,更是使其在實踐中學會靈活運用書本上的談判技巧。對學生多多鼓勵,適時鼓勵,對學生進行全面綜合化的商務英語談判訓練。

2.應用與知識的相互結合檢測。

學校的考試方法往往都是千篇一律的,教師劃出重點,學生進行機械記憶,為了考試過關,學生往往會臨時抱佛腳。為了增強商務英語談判學習的考試靈活性,可以採取應用與知識過關相互結合的檢測,注重培養學生的商務英語實際談判能力,提高學生的實際運用能力。在考試中應用案例,讓學生進行案例分析,這樣可以考查學生的實際運用能力和解決問題的能力,不僅增強學生的口語實際運用能力,還進一步培養了學生的現實運用能力。

二、文化的差異

世界上有多個國家和地區,不同的國家有著不同的風俗文化,每個國家都擁有獨特的文化,這些文化的差異使得雙方在談判中存在一些問題,不同國家的人,說話方式不同,對於交往禮儀的要求不同,談判中的語言側重點也不一樣,且不同的人對於一句話的理解也是不一樣的,怎樣才能在不同中找到共同呢?

1.中西文化存在的差異。

不同地域有不同的文化。在西方文化世界中,人們受人文主義思想的影響,強調解放個性,尊重個人利益和保護個人隱私,他們往往在談判中注重個人的利益訴求,可以直截了當地提出他們的要求。然而,中國人深受儒家思想的薰陶,“齊家、治國、平天下”,注重集體的利益,以集體利益為上,注重團隊合作。

2.尊重差異,取得談判主動。

西方人的談判在世界上之所以著名,和他們強大的經濟實力是分不開的,他們受人文主義的影響,性格比較開放,易於接受新鮮事物,在談判過程中會直接說出自己的利益要求。他們擁有足夠的自信,善於表達,善於思考,勇於提出質疑,往往他們的談判是一整個智囊團的意見昇華。

三、好的談判策略

1.好的談判技巧。

雖然現在大多數的談判都是使用英語,但不同的文化背景,對於英語的使用和理解也是完全不一樣的。在談判過程中,應簡單、明瞭地表達自己想要說的意思和自己的利益要求,在使用語言時,儘量不要使用帶有歧義、雙關等模糊不清的詞彙,這樣會降低自己的可信度,造成雙方在談判中的誤會。儘量不要有模稜兩可的態度,很多國家的談判者認為,是是非非就是一個定論,是非不分會降低對方對自己的好感。不同的文化要求我們在商務英語的談判中儘量瞭解對方的文化背景,熟悉對方的用語習慣和了解對方的價值觀。

2.好的談判禮儀。

有好的開始,就會有好的結束,中華民族素有禮儀之邦的稱號。一個好的禮儀在談判中有利於促進雙方的良好溝通,在面對來自不同國家的合作者時,我們要在事前瞭解對方的`禮儀習慣,對來自不同國家的人,要有適合對方的禮儀舉止。這樣不僅僅尊重了對方的習俗,更增加了我方談判的取勝機率。一個優秀的談判者,會樹立完美的個人形象。在談判的過程中,你不僅僅是個人的代表,更是公司的代表,代表了一個公司的信譽和實力及對雙方合作的重視程度。在談判的時候,要舉止莊重、大方,時常和在場的所有人進行互動,不能單一地和其中的一個或者兩個人進行交談。

3.好的語言策略。

在商務英語的談判中,好的語言策略,是取勝的關鍵,當談判進入到白熱化的階段時,適時運用暗含的語言策略,不直接說破雙方存在的問題,委婉地提出自己的利益要求,雙方要在平和的環境中進行談判。善於使用幽默的語言,緩和談判的氣氛,讓談判在輕鬆愉快的環境中進行,讓對方感覺自己在一個受尊重的環境中進行合作。

四、結語

在商務英語談判中,面對不同的情景,有不同的解決方案。在實踐中掌握並恰當地應用商務英語,有利於實現全面雙贏,落實自己在談判中的主導地位。
