This exploratory study focuses on identifying the key cultural and other contextual influences that
affect the process and outcome of commercial negotiations between Pakistanis and NonPakistanis.
A survey of negotiators was conducted asking for information, based on their
experience, about the business negotiation process involving Pakistanis and Non-Pakistanis.
Utilizing the studies of Hofstede, and Salacuse, the responses of Pakistani and Non-Pakistani
negotiators are analyzed and cultural traits displayed by Pakistani negotiators in international
business negotiations are identified.
