1. Do some research on the main characteristics of both Latin and Anglo
cultures, and make a mind map based on your findings (differences and similarities). It is mandatory to at least use two recent references. 2. Think about your local business environment and look for six typical situations where these characteristics may play an important role in business communications. 3. Design a solution strategy or intervention to deal with the cultural conflict in each of those six situations. You may use Hofsted's cultural dimensions (Links to an external site.). Uncertainty Avoidance The uncertainty avoidance dimension has to do with how society deals with the fact that the future can never be known: should we try to control the future or let it happen? This ambiguity creates fear, and different cultures have learned to deal with this fear in different ways. Uncertainty avoidance scores reflect the extent to which members of a culture are threatened by ambiguous or unfamiliar situations and create beliefs and institutions that attempt to avoid these situations. Long Term Orientation This dimension describes how each society must maintain some connection to its own past while addressing current and future challenges, and societies prioritize these two existential goals differently. Normative Association. For example, people who scored low on this dimension were more willing to uphold time-honored traditions and norms while being skeptical of social change. Indulgence One of the challenges facing humanity today and in the past is the level of socialization of young children. Without socialization, we would not be "people". This dimension is defined as the degree to which people try to control their desires and impulses based on how they grew up. The weaker control is called "forbearance", and the stronger control is called "restraint". Therefore, culture can be described as tolerant or reserved. Political Tensión Conflicts between nations sometimes prevent development or invasion. It is important to understand the environment, understand the current political situation and develop strategies to avoid conflict in the region. Inequality There is inequality, which is a very important aspect today, both in terms of race, ideology and political situation. Ideological clashes may have contributed to the failure to reach an important agreement. Economy he economic status of countries is determined by levels of imports, exports, employment, unemployment, poverty and value-added business activity. It is sometimes inconvenient to enter a country because, among other things, its economy is not at its best. Solution To have solutions about everything we need to investigate about everything and leran how it is Works, to have a solution need no make some question to the person and learn how act to this situation.
