情景实战对话训练- Body Language肢体语言

I: Matthew, do you know much about body language in countries around the world?

M: Sure. I've picked up a few things from travelling around for work. why?

I: Well, I had a meeting today with a woman from Japan and she wouldn't stop bowing! I didn't know what to do!

M: Did you bow back?

I: No, I tried to shake her hand, but her hand was so limp I was a bit offended.

M: Well, Japanese businessmen and women typically bow to greet each other in Japan. She might have been offended by your strong handshake.

I: But she was in America! Shouldn't she have known that strong handshakes in America signify confidence and respect?

M: Things are different in Japan. You know, in some countries, making eye contact with others is considered rude.

I: Is that why she wouldn't look at me in the meeting?

M: I think it's highly possible, yes.

I: The meeting really didn't go well at all. I think I need to read up about intercultural communication before I have another meeting with someone from another country.

M: That's a good idea. When you don't know much about other cultures, the simplest thing can offend someone.

I: That's so true. It's great that we see eye to eye on this.
