Successful people in international business understand the cultures of other countries and learn to change their practices in different cultures. They understand the importance of avoiding business decisions based on misconceptions-mistaken ideas.

It’s ethnocentrism that leads to failure in international business.

Language

A knowledge of the local language can help international business people in four ways. First, people can communicates directly. Second, people are usually more open in their communication
