Cultures around the World Make Decisions
Exercise #4
The American culture is obsessed with individualism, which makes their economy so hard to operate using a structured format of living, their culture is dominated by the personal anatomy, and they want to be able to choose everything individually. Moreover, the communication between people is mostly formal, with a big distance between families and individuals.
In the Arab culture, collectiveness is essential in everyone's life. Strong relationships are what tie the individuals together; the decision making process is influenced by family members, especially the major life decisions, like carrier path and marriage.
