中文摘要:随着中国改革开放的不断深入和成功加入WTO,我国与世界各国的联系也将越来越密切。经济全球化加速了我国企业的国际化进程,而跨文化谈判是我国企业国际化进程中重要商务活动之一。各种类型的跨文化谈判日益频繁,而跨文化谈判中的文化差异就越来越受到瞩目了。 受不同文化的影响,商务谈判风格差异很大。西方人往往把复杂的谈判分解为一个个较小的问题,然后再依次解决;而在许多东方文化中,谈判是采取一种通盘考虑的方法。因此,在国际商务谈判中,只有正确认识中西文化冲突才能更好的探讨商务谈判的策略,针对不同文化背景的商业伙伴,强化基于文化差异的谈判管理,正确处理文化差异,对于提高谈判效率是十分重要的。本文通过对比中西文化的某些差异,总结出跨文化谈判中迥异的思维和决策方式,从而帮助提高跨国商务谈判的有效性。
