Traveling to every part of the world gets easier, but how well do we know and understand each other. Here¡¯s a simple test. Imagine you are planning to hold a meeting at four o¡¯clock. What time should you expect your foreign business friends to arrive? If they are Germans, they¡¯ll arrive on time. If they are Americans, they¡¯ll probably be 15 minutes early.
