SUGGESTED STRATEGIES FOR COORDINATING INTRODUCTIONS
• Conduct background research on how members of your counterpart’s culture commonly make introductions-who makes them, in what order, what they think is important to say , what they want to hear, how long day usually take and so forth.
• Decide how you and other members of your culture will make introductions and whether your norms are likely to be acceptable to your counterpart. Try to model similar levels of information and disclosure on that provided by your counterpart.
• Pay special attention to norms regarding rank and status when making introductions and whether senior people usually speak first or last.
• If the members of the culture that your are negotiating with are organized in a strong hierarchy, consider mirroring their sequence of introductions so that people on your them of corresponding rank and status are introduced in a similar way and sequence.
• Develop an opening statement that will be culturally acceptable to your counterpart and will provide this individual or the team with information that you think they would like to know.
• Avoid making introductions that your counterpart will dislike: bragging , exaggerating experiences, stating long lists of accomplishments, or putting significant emphasis on you as an individual over your group, unless these behaviors are culturally appropriate. in general, try to avoid one-upmanship
when making introduction, because this behavior tends to create competition with other team members or with counterparts.
