About the Author:
Barry Tomalin is Director of Cultural Training at International House in London, one of the largest language and cultural training organizations in the world, and Visiting Lecturer in Cross-Cultural Communication at the University of Westminister. He is the author of many books and has trained in 65 countries.
Review:
“Tomalin and Nicks show how understanding culture can improve performance. Sprinkled with colorful anecdotes, The World’s Business Cultures offers sound advice on meetings and negotiations, as well as decision-making, gift-giving and writing emails.”
“...a systematic and practical book for business people and students everywhere. A must read for business people who want to successfully compete in world markets.”
"All MBA graduates will love this book – it’s a no-nonsense, systematic and practical book, written with such a pristine style of logic and rationality that it leaves you at times spell-bound.
Peppered with many anecdotes and stories, it zeroes in brilliantly on the potential cultural mishaps that the somewhat parochial and ethnocentric reader could fall into.
Interculturalist Tomalin and journalist Nicks have done their homework thoroughly – they have put together a compendium of cross – cultural information that covers almost every point you need to know to succeed in today’s fast moving world.
Bottom line: the ideal gift for the business person on the run who wishes to remain on the run. "
From reviews of the first edition:
"This book benefits from artful organization and flow; clear language; a friendly tone; conclusions and bulleted highlights; concept illustrations via stories, movies, commercials, and popular/scholarly works; and a further reading section. Summing Up: Highly recommended."
“Tomalin and Nicks is a must read for business travelers who want to successfully compete in world markets. More than a collection of cultural do's and don'ts, it offers clear, practical and comprehensive guidelines for establishing and maintaining successful business relationships in the multicultural marketplace.”
"Nicks and Tomalin offer more than just helpful insights into different cultures. For this experienced traveller, World Business Cultures is also a guide to good behaviour based not on travellers' tales but on principles which I can apply in many situations."
“A no-nonsense, systematic and practical book for business people and students of business everywhere. The short country profiles are especially useful and to the point.”
