In addition, I will focus on business context.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBusiness context in this paper means the realm of big companies with at least branches in two different cultures. Therefore, I have chosen five countries that Germany has a strong business interest in, and which have different socio-cultural frameworks: Saudi-Arabia, China, Japan, Russia, and Brazil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe proceeding in this paper is that after explanatory notes to functions and types of NVC, I will show a photo of one notable business representative of each of the five countries. Based on these photos, I will illustrate the characteristic features of NVC in the respective country. Differences to German NVC will be lined out with special hints to potential pitfalls, causing severe economic consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, I will summarize the main issues of this paper, consider the results and come up with a conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sources used for this paper are not only scientifically proven literature. For the definition of NVC in general, long-established surveys of prominent academics are available, like I. Eibl-Eibesfeldt (Similarities and Differences between Cultures in Expressive Movements), and M. Argyle (Non-verbal Communication in Human Social Interaction). To be responsive to the business related task of this paper, I also draw on ¿how-to books¿, internet posts and a quality journal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783668071193\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783668071193","offer_id":39442176180317,"sku":"9783668071193","price":17.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/086e154a-64d8-497e-8da5-0e066071540f.jpg?v=1778218348","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/the-role-of-non-verbal-communication-in-intercultural-business-von-julia-mero","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
