Homework : The difference between business culture in the US and Vietnam

Time Firms in Vietnam tend

to be time elastic

Although time is also considered an

important factor in work, it is not as strict

as in the US In Vietnam, being a little late or delaying the deadline is not a big deal, as long as there

is consensus between the parties

In the United States, punctuality is highly valued in meetings and working sessions Time is very important to

American businesspeople, and they are very punctual and rarely late in meetings

Because the delay is interpreted as impoliteness, carelessness, contempt for customers and partners, or incompetence in time management

phuong-dong-Work style In Vietnamese Individual people are

businesses, there is a

trend to promote the

sense of collective

solidarity and

sustainability while

discouraging

individual effort that

is unrelated to the

collective Individuals

are influenced by the

collective and must

always be aware of

how to reconcile and

integrate with their

surroundings in order

to achieve harmony

Individual work goals

must be aligned with

the collective's aims,

bringing benefits to

the collective

Therefore, in the East,

an enterprise that is

assessed as a good

and reliable collective

has a more

competitive advantage

in recruiting

resources

encouraged to live freely, frankly, independently not only in thought but also in action Because they believe that each individual is a nucleus of society, the goals of the business must be associated with the goals

of the individual, bringing benefits to the individual If assigned to

do a certain job in groups, they get together, assign specific work to each person, when the project is completed, each individual returns

to his or her job, regardless of together

Management

style

In Vietnam, the gap between leaders and employees is quite large, the boss is a person of high status, the gap is quite large compared to

employees; Power is concentrated mainly

on the leader In Vietnamese companies and enterprises, most of the work, direction and solution of a project or problem of the company are decided by the leader

Therefore, the responsibility and pressure of the people The leader is relatively large, the higher the leadership level, the greater the ability to influence many employees in the organization The success of Eastern businesses is often mainly determined by the ability of the leader

In American companies, the boss is also a person who earns money like other employees, only the rank, vision as well as salary are higher than other employees Leaders and employees have a generally equal relationship Employees are empowered to carry out the organization's work and hold

themselves accountable for the results of their work when the leader raises a problem; at the same time, employees are empowered to carry out the organization's work and hold

themselves accountable for the results of their work when the leader raises a problem

Therefore, the productivity and flexibility of employees is one of the important keys

to a successful business

Uniform Most Vietnamese

companies and businesses often pay attention to the external appearance such as clothes that are suitable for office culture, neat and tidy

Because the external appearance will show the prestige of the individual and the company In guiding and training

employees, companies especially come to guide the etiquette of communication culture in the workplace From the smallest details are the head, hair to the way of dressing and costumes

Americans are known for being laid-back,

undemanding, and unconcerned with how other people dress On the street, distinguishing caste, local culture, or occupation based on outerwear might be difficult In most companies in the US, employees are allowed to wear loose clothing that

is not too strict but not too revealing because what businesses care about is productivity and work results rather than the appearance of employees their

However, American businessmen's conferences, seminars, parties and receptions are equally beautiful and splendid as in other countries

Cutural

communication

Vietnam, like Eastern countries such as Korea, China, and Japan, places a premium on how to address and behave in communication, as well as the culture at the table and the way people dress in the workplace The act of smiling and agreeing with a partner, even if you don't fully

comprehend what the other person is saying,

is considered courteous in Vietnamese business culture.Smile and nod

to demonstrate that they are paying attention to what the other person is saying, not to express

agreement with the concept Furthermore, when both parties are

of the same sex, the custom of shaking hands is very widespread in Vietnam, and this

People in America treat each other fairly and have freedom Therefore, American business culture is not too rigid about form, but

emphasizes on naturalness

-In terms of posture, Americans consider bowing as an act of humiliation When they want to assert

themselves to the other person, they tend to raise their heads and lean back Americans can put one foot on the other and lean back when talking to guests

-About shaking hands, Americans have a habit

of shaking hands firmly using the whole hand, not just the finger to show friendliness and enthusiasm A loose handshake can be seen as uncertain, lack of

confidence, and even aloof in a relationship

-In terms of facial expression, for

action is performed both before and after the meeting They normally shake hands with two hands, with the left hand on top.If your partner is a woman, wait for them

to put out their hand first, if they don't want

to, give them a small bow

Americans, shaking their head from side to side means disagreeing Nodding means agreement Raise your eyebrows to show surprise

Perspectives at

work

Vietnam tends to be softer than American, the concept of work in Vietnamese culture is

"work to live", the manager's role is to promote unity, solidarity, and work efficiency shared;

Conflicts are resolved

by compromise and negotiation An effective manager is one who has the support of many others, not based on ability

In American culture, people "live to work" and always strive to get a raise and promotion based on their actual ability The American motto of life is "the winner takes it all", so Americans love to flaunt and discuss their

successes and achievements Americans tend to believe that people are always capable of doing things in

a better way

Long-term bias

and Short-term

bias

Most businesses in Vietnam are long-term oriented Specifically,

in Vietnamese culture, truth depends on many variables such

as situation, context and time The Vietnamese display a traditional ability to adapt easily to changing conditions;

they very patiently wait for the results to

be achieved; respect the past

Meanwhile, America tends to be short-term In American culture, truth can only be "right" or

"wrong", judging things can only be "good" or

"bad" Americans often have little patience, waiting; disregard the past Americans often have a saying "Let the past rest in peace." What happened in the past is

no longer worth mentioning

Avoid Risks –

Take Risks

Based on opposing cultural value pairs, Dutch psychologist Geert Hofstede , Both Vietnamese culture and American culture are inclined towards risk taking, but in American culture, the level of risk taking is higher Vietnamese culture as well as American culture is very easy to accept new things; people tend to think that it is not necessary

to have many rules; work hard, listen to the opinions and views of others
