Business culture in America
Americans - the capitalists, and they are ruthless businessmen. In making business decisions Americans believe that if even the dollar is not God, it is all-powerful.
In America there are a lot of women in business, they called business ladies. And these business sharks are not inferior to theirs colleagues – businessmen in any way.
The main thing that Americans are interested in - a fair deal or mutually beneficial relationship - as they call them.
Americans are very worried about - the reputation of their business partners and themselves. Confidence in the United States created by fair play, sober business experience and good will. =
Americans are very punctual for business meetings and never late. The time of these meetings and talks are strictly limited - no more than an hour.
At business meetings, Americans usually are in a good mood, they are energetic, and looks friendly. They like good jokes.
Somebody may be unpleasantly amazed by the American publicly friendliness. Americans are characterized by the scale and the scope. They think they all must be best of the best. Their feelings, speech, emotions - all a bit exaggerated.
The Americans say what they think, and are too straight. They'll tell you all what they think, even if it would be better to remain silent. Any hints can cause distrust of partners. Details in the U.S. is very important, because Americans, there are no trifles in the organization of any business.
During the negotiations American can put a foot on a nearby chair, or on the table, or put his foot on the leg, so that the shoe will lay on the knee the other leg ( in America better not to sit "foot crossed foot " ).
Also Americans communicate with each other by name, regardless of age and the situation.
