Background: Having chosen to take a degree in international business, we have had many opportunities to meet people from different cultures. These encounters have, we believe, made our lives richer, but they have not always been problem-free. When different cultures come together, the differences inevitably become apparent.

Being at work and experience these differences might not at all have the same ice-breaking effect - rather the opposite sometimes.
