The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives

with

knowledge

of

languages

and

skills

in

cross-cultural

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 counterparts.

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.

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

multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American

negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier

of information and cash.

In

studies

of

American

negotiators

abroad,

several

traits

have

been

identified

that

may

serve

to

confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular

that cause cross- cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the 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.

How

much

will

international

students

have

misconceptions

about

the

U.S.?

In

an

effort

to

quash

some

myths,

here

are

the

four

most

common

stereotypes

regarding

college

education

in

the

United

States.

Myth 1: American students are not as academically driven in comparison to other nations.

There are more than 3,000 universities in the United States. Some are highly selective, some not at

all.

The

less

selective

colleges

may

consist

of

students

who

have

little

concern

for

their

academic

well-being,

but

in

the

more

selective

colleges

you

will

find

very

committed

students

who

will

spend

countless hours at night on their homework. This is a phrase in the United States called an “all nighter”

which is used when a student stays up all night to perfect an assignment. In truth, it is an issue of pride.

Myth 2: American students party all night and day.

While American students do enjoy the freedom to explore a full lifestyle, they are also expected to

keep

up

with

very

high

standards

of

social

behavior

and

academic

excellence.

International

students

often join clubs or organizations where they can become involved in exciting programs both on and off
