Abstract:

The key to professional success in Japan is understanding Japanese people. The
authors, seasoned cross-cultural trainers for businesspeople, provide a
practical set of guidelines for understanding Japanese people and culture
through David A. Victor's LESCANT approach of evaluating a culture's language,
environment, social organization, context, authority, nonverbal communication,
and time conception. Each chapter addresses one of these topics and shows
effective strategies to overcoming cultural barriers and demonstrates how to
evaluate the differences between Japan and North America to help avoid common
communication mistakes. The book is generously peppered with photographs to
provide visual examples. Exploring language and communication topics,
international relations, and the business community, this book is an excellent
intercultural overview for anyone traveling to or working in Japan.
