Meetings in a number of Asian countries typically have a desired outcome, without much room for taking a new direction. Knowing the meeting's outcome saves participants from any confrontation or debates, but can be an odd experience for westerners.
很多亚洲国家的会议一般都有一个预期的结果,没有太多改变方向的空间。与会者已经知道了会议结果,就不会再争论或起冲突,但西方人会觉得这样非常奇怪。

弗里德曼解释说:“一些人本以为他们飞去参加的是一个头脑风暴会议,但是(在中国)会议中并没有头脑风暴。”

When Pascal Soboll meets with clients in Italy or Spain, he's no longer offended if they duck out early or arrive late.

如果创新设计公司“日光设计”总经理斯卡尔•索伯尔会见意大利或西班牙的客户,他就不会再因为他们迟到或早退而生气了。因为他已经认识到,他在意大利、西班牙和法国一些地方的生意伙伴们是遵照自己的时间表参加会议的,而不是开完整整三个小时的会。
