跨文化交际案例分析

Situation

Li Hong is a new teacher in a middle school. One day, one of her Chinese colleague Yang Zhen introduces her to their middle-aged foreign teacher Maggie.

Yang: Li Hong, this is Maggie, our English teacher from America. And Maggie, this is Li Hong, our new colleague.

Li and Maggie: How do you do?

Maggie: Your sweater is so smart.

Li: Oh, it is only an old one, I bought it last year.

Maggie: You are so young and smart, I am sure you are a good teacher.

Li: No, no. I am just a newcomer, I should learn from you old teachers.

In this case, Maggie is too bold. She should not be too talkative. Li Hong is too modest. She should be more talkative.

Li Hong comes from a collectivist culture which emphasizes deference paid to people older than self and modesty displayed on the part of the young. Maggie comes from an individualistic culture which values assertiveness and free expression of feelings.

As a young and new teacher, Li Hong showed her respect to Maggie with a formal greeting. When Maggie complimented Li on her sweater and herself, Li reacted in a typical Chinese way by overusing modesty in front of a teacher older than her. She displayed her humbleness by saying that her sweater was an old one and she should learn from Maggie, an old teacher. Li’s responses are perfect between Chinese people but terrible in cross-cultural situations like this. She did not realize that her expression of respect could be translated into offence since individualistic cultures do not associate as much deference with age as collectivistic cultures do. Therefore, Maggie, coming from an individualistic culture, was surprised when Li called her “old teacher”. Maggie did not understand that the word “old” here meant as a compliment, meaning that she had richer teaching experience. Both Li Hong and Maggie communicated only from their cultural perspectives and thus caused miscommunication.

To avoid miscommunication, Li Hong and Maggie should learn more about each other’s culture and adjust their behaviors accordingly. When Maggie complimented Li on her sweater and herself, Li could simply reply “thank you”. She could use her non-verbal language to show her respect to Maggie, for instance, with a smile, a handshake, etc. As to Maggie, she could use fewer complimentary words or more objective questions to reduce Li’s nervousness. She should also understand that one of the key values in collectivism is deference paid to experience and old age.

An American manager praises one Japanese employee in front of his group.

American: Mr Sugimono, I have noticed that you are doing an excellent

job on the assembly line. I hope that the other workers notice how it

should be done.
Japanese: (Feeling uneasy) Praise is not necessary. I am only doing

my job (He was hoping that the other Japanese workers did not

hear them).
American: You are the best, most excellent and dedicated worker we

have ever had at the Jones Corporation.

(The Japanese worker blushed and nodded his head several times,

and kept working.)
American: Well, are you going to say “Thank you”, Mr Sugimono, or

just remain silent?
Japanese: Excuse me, Mr Jones. May I leave for five minutes?
American: Sure. (He was annoyed and watched Sugimono exit.) I can’t

believe how rude some Japanese workers are. They seem to be

disturbed by praise and don’t answer you … They just remain silent.
