Cultural Differences & Cultural Diversity in International Business

Business


How to do Business in the US Why the US is Sometimes Ahead and Sometimes Behind In this podcast, we talk about the current development (early December 2020) about how different cultures/countries deal and have dealt with the current (at the time of this pandemic) situation going on. "Sometimes the USA is ahead of the rest of the world, and sometimes they're behind". Why is it that the US constructed an ultra-modern Interstate system in 1950 that at this moment is in such a relatively bad state that it will need billions to get it up to current standards. And why do companies like Amazon, Google, Apple lead the way when it comes to looking forward and being ahead of most of the rest of the world (mind you, China is possibly even further ahead than the US when it comes to AI). We look at the current situation from a business perspective and add a theoretical framework around it so you can better understand how to do business with the US.
