For tasks 83-100 read the text and do the following exercises. Cultural differences between Japanese and American managers have presented the biggest obstacles to Japanese companies investing in America.

 

Cultural differences between Japanese and American managers have presented the biggest obstacle to Japanese companies investing in America.

A seminar for Japanese executives working in America was attended by 25 men, nearly all of them in identical dark suits. Despite the rooms stifling heating system, they resolutely refused to remove their jacket. Their coffee break lasted exactly the scheduled ten minutes. They began to ask questions only after they had got to know one another a bit better at lunch. They were usually deferential and always polite.

A similar seminar for 25 Americans working for Japanese subsidiaries in America included eight women.Several of the men removed their jackets on entering the room.A ten-minute coffee break stretched beyond 20 minutes.Participants asked questions and several aggressively contradicted what the speakers had to say.

According to Mr. Thomas Lifson of Harvard and Mr. Yoshihiro Tsurumi of New Yorks Baruch College-the two main speakers at both seminarsmisunderstandings between Japanese and American managers are possible at nearly every encounter. They can begin at the first recruiting interview.A big American company typically hires people to fill particular slots.Its bosses know that Americans are mobile people,who have a limited commitment to any particular employer or part of the country.As a result,jobs are clearly defined and so are the skills needed to fill them. American firms hire and fire almost at will.

The assumptions (and the expectations) of the Japanese managers of Japanese subsidiaries in America could hardly be more different. They hire people more for the skills they will acquire after joining the company than for their existing skills.

American managers rely heavily on number-packed memoranda and the like.The Japanese colleagues prefer informal consultations which lead eventually to a consensus. According to Mr Tsurumi, they find comical the sight of American managers in neighboring offices exchanging memos.

Confronted with a dispute between middle managers, most Japanese superiors refuse to become involved, expecting the managers themselves to resolve the issue. The Americans conclude, wrongly, that their Japanese bosses are indecisive or incompetent. Japanese managers do not share the American belief that conflict is inevitable, and sometimes healthy. They want to believe that employees form one big happy family.
