内容摘要
随着经济全球化的不断发展,各公司之间的商业合作的机会急剧增加。
不同国家的谈判者在同一张谈判桌上就共同和冲突的利益进行协商。
同时,他们也带来了不同的文化。
文化是影响国际商务谈判的重要因素之一。
文化决定人的价值观、宗教信仰,从而影响人的思想和行为。
因此,不同文化背景的谈判者运用不同的方式、策略进行谈判。
文化的差异必然会引起文化冲突,谈判的成功与否大多可以用文化因素来解释。
因此,要想取得有效地谈判,谈判者不仅要了解对手的文化及与己的文化差异,更重要的是应该了解文化因素如何影响谈判。
这样,有助于谈判者预见谈判的进程,及时调整谈判策略,最终达成圆满的协议。
可见,这一课题的研究顺应时代的发展,具有积极的现实意义。
