Abstract

 

With the development of economic globalization, international business activities have become increasingly frequent; therefore, business negotiations, as a part of business activities, are of great importance. Since the United States is China’s biggest trading partner, there are more and more business negotiations between China and America. However, owing to the cultural differences between the two countries, the negotiators may have different negotiation styles, which may lead to a failure in negotiation. So it is of great significance to study the differences of business negotiation styles between China and America.

This thesis tends to analyze the differences between Chinese and American business negotiation styles based on Hofstede’s cultural dimensions theory. The differences mainly cover six aspects: negotiation goal, negotiation attitude, time sensitivity, decision making, degree of courtesy and communication style. And several strategies are put forward to reduce the misunderstanding between the two countries. It is hoped that through this study, negotiators from both sides can have a better understanding of their differences in their culture and their negotiation styles. Only by enhancing understanding between the two countries can China and the United States further their cooperation in economic activities.
