Answer to Question 1

Answer: A country's culture is the set of values, symbols, beliefs, languages, and norms that guide human behavior within the country. It is learned behavior that develops as individuals grow from childhood to adulthood. As one goes from one side of this country to the other, a wide range of cultural differences will be experienced. The same can be said in traveling from north to south. Cultural differences are intensified when going from one country to another. These cultural differences exert a major influence on global business. Cultural differences reveal themselves in everything from the workplace environments to differences in the concept of time, space, and social interaction. Companies operating in the global environment must understand that cultural differences add dramatically to the difficulty of managing human capital.
