书籍介绍

An international business expert helps you understand and navigate cultural differences in this insightful and practical guide, perfect for both your work and personal life.

Americans precede anything negative with three nice comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans get straight to the point; Latin Americans and Asians are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians think the best boss is just one of the crowd. It's no surprise that when they try and talk to each other, chaos breaks out.

In The Culture Map, INSEAD professor Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together. She provides a field-tested model for decoding how cultural differences impact international business, and combines a smart analytical framework with practical, actionable advice.

An American based in France, ERIN MEYER is a professor at INSEAD, one of the world’s leading international business schools.

同事刚推荐的时候,我想大概是商学院的老师收集刻板印象的一本水书吧。地铁上有空就翻两页,越发惊喜。大多数人通过经历看世界,可即便在一个国家学习生活了很多年,也只是看到有限的局部。如果能高一个视角看习惯的冲突和差异,如果能预知到尚未具备全球视野的合作伙伴的沟通习惯差异,会少不少苦恼吧。
这本书大概2年前就开始读了,读到现在终于读完了。借我书的同事特别推荐,说要每年再看一次。我边看就边觉得为什么这本书举的例子那里面的人都这么愚蠢,是表扬是批评你难道听不出来吗那个法国女士?好多例子都无力吐槽,明明就是可以事先沟通了解大家的expectations在哪里啊。或者弄清楚你是甲方还是乙方,你是老板还是员工,这样去了解你应该适应什么环境或者如果拿到新的business。反正我是很不喜欢这本书,但不得不说我是通过了这本书才认识到了自己的culture,maybe在圈子外卖往圈子里面看会清晰些吧。最后几个章节有些有用的信息,但总体来说还是不喜欢这本书。
书很好读,举例很多而不是纯理论,并且作者还贴心的提供了不少解决方案,非常简单明了。读完一遍,未来也可以时不时翻阅,当工具书用。作者本人是INSEAD的教授,主要内容都是基于她在跨文化工作环境中的实践,比如对学生的访谈和问题总结等。而商学院的学生不外乎就是各大跨国企业的中高级管理人员,所以这个本书很适合需要在同样环境下工作的人去看。如果能够理解文化差异和不同文化背景下的思维模式,可以显著减少沟通和表达方式上的分歧,提升管理水平及工作效率。因为人的思维方式和行为,会受到自己原生文化的影响,有时甚至是潜意识的。即使是在海外生活多年,自认为很“国际化”的人群,依然有时会而不自知被牵引。
啊啊啊啊牛逼!18年其实请她做演讲的时候就知道了,但是现在从美国回来才是感受最深刻的。
从另一双眼里,看自己,看自己的文化。
写完1500英文读书笔记人快死了
An easy read. Haven't thought of cultural differences in such a systematic way. It gives you a holistic picture of how to analyse the situation when working with different cultural parties.
受益匪浅的一本书
