This system of learned behaviorpattern characteristics of the members of a given society is constantly shaped by a set of dynamic variables:language, religion, values and attitudes, manners and customs, aesthetics, technology, education, and socialinstitutions.To cope with this system, an international manager needs both factual and interpretive knowledge of culture.To some extent, the factual knowledge can be learned; its interpretation comes only through experience.The most complicated problems in dealing with the cultural environment stem from the fact that one cannot learnculture―one has to live it. Two schools of thought exist in the business world on how to deal with culturaldiversity. One is that business is business the world around, following the model of Pepsi and McDonald’s.In some cases, globalization is a fact of life; however, cultural differences are still far from converging.The other school proposes that companies must tailor business approaches to individual cultures.
