I guess compromise would include an evaluation of the circumstances - something which is much more common in multi-linear cultures.

Unless one party adapts to the other – and they rarely do – constant crises will occur.Anurag Vidyarthihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15807679281638543583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32704280.post-27319787086476163582011-07-24T11:07:35.758+02:002011-07-24T11:07:35.758+02:00Another interesting story :

He never failed to get through his appointments in Denmark and Germany, but always had trouble in Greece. The Greek agent was a popular man in Athens and had to see so many people each day that he invariably ran over time. So my friend usually missed his appointment or waited three or four hours for the agent to turn up. Finally, after several trips, the producer adapted to the multi-active culture. He simply went to the Greek’s secretary in late morning and asked for the agent’s schedule for the day. As the Greek conducted most of his meetings in hotel rooms or bars, the BBC producer would wait in the hotel lobby and catch him rushing from one appointment to the next. The multi-active Greek, happy to see him, would not hesitate to spend half an hour with him and thus make himself late for his next appointment.Anurag Vidyarthihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15807679281638543583noreply@blogger.com
