Hello All,
I recently heard about an aspect of Japanese business culture that I would like to learn more about: however, I don't know how to look it up because I don't recall the name for it. My plan is to describe it here in the hope that someone might recognize it and point me to resources where I can learn more.
The description I heard goes something like this:
There was a business deal in process between an American and a Japanese firm. A dispute arose and the American firm declared it was backing back out of the deal. Later on the American firm wanted to try to resolve the dispute, however, my understanding was that the decision maker at the Japanese firm would never consider it because some cultural violation had occurred. The phrase I heard was that the Japanese decision maker was "practicing" some cultural norm.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Any ideas about what this "practice" might be called and how I might learn more about it?
Sincerely,
Dan
Dayton, Ohio
