the diversity around me. When a person is being sent for work outside his home country, he faces various difficulties since the culture, norms, behavior patterns, perception, attitude of every individual and a country is different. A person who has come from one country to another for work carries his own values and culture with him which might put him into problems in carrying out his work efficiently.

 

Culture includes one’s beliefs, attitudes, and norms, values which is adapted or learnt by a person from his very childhood from the environment around him.

 

If I would be sent to Japan on an assignment then the factors that I would have taken care of or would have scanned the following factors to avoid cross cultural communication are:

 

The Cultural factor

Culture is the values, attitudes, and the way of doing things a person learns during the socialization process. The cultural factor impacts the cross cultural communication because the norms and practices a person acquires and the practices in their country and local community will be different from and clash with the norms of the co-workers brought up in different countries and society.

 

The Racial factor

This factor refers to how one’s conscious membership in a particular race effects how they interact with the employees in the workplace who come from different cultures. Racial identity is more of a factor in the Unites States and many people find adjusting problems due t racial discrimination. Some adjusts and some give up and asks for shifting them from a place where they have faced such a behavior.

 

The Ethnic factor

This factor highlights the role ethnicity plays in how two co-workers from two different cultures interact with one another. For example in United states, while European Americans are less likely to take their ethnicity into account while communicating, but members of other ethnic groups such as African Americans, Latin Americans and Asian Americans are most likely to consider their ethnicity backgrounds in the communication process.

 

The Gender Factor

This means that communication between members of different cultures is affected by how different societies and countries view the roles of men and women. Like in some countries women are not even allowed to work or step out of their houses. For example in Arab countries women are not allowed to show their face and hides themselves under the veil.
