I had this presentation on crosscultural communication dynamics, the folllowing is a comparison I did between western and mexican communication styles, in your opinion how acuurate was I???

Every culture produces its own communication dynamics and demands. To operate with a different culture, or management system, requires patience so that an understanding of the system can evolve. This understanding can be enhanced by recognizing barriers to effective intercultural communication. These barriers are: assumptions of similarities, nonverbal misinterpretations, preconceptions, and of course language differences (Matsumoto 2004).
Effective business communication in Mexico is very different when compared to the U.S.. It is characterized by many social formalities and behavioral codes. These behavioral codes can be categorized as verbal and non-verbal.
Verbal Behavior Codes

Major non-verbal communication styles between the U.S. and Mexico are eye contact, space, and touch.
Eye Contact: Direct eye contact is often viewed as disrespectful. When mexican is being spoken to, they may look away or down as a sign of respect to the person speaking (LaFrance & Mayo, 1976).

Space: A Mexican’s interpersonal distance tends to be somewhat less than that of typical Americans. The typical 2-3 foot "arm’s length" spacing preferred by Americans is experienced by many Mexicans as cold and unfriendly. Since both people’s expectations for "normal" social distances are often unconscious, one can witness the phenomena of the ER being backed across the room by a Hispanic person, as each tries to conduct the conversation in a way that feels right for them. This may be amusing to witness but is very uncomfortable for both participants (Bennett, 1996). Also, being an affectionate people don’t be surprised if you are the recipient of a hug on a subsequent meeting

Touch: Latin cultures tend to use touch more than cultures originating in the US. Levels of touch between members of the same sex occur far more often in public settings in predominately Hispanic cultures than they do in European American culture, and do not carry the sexual connotation such behavior often has in the U.S (Condon, 1997).




Non-Verbal Behavior Codes

Vocal patterns: The normal range of voice pitch for Spanish speakers is narrower than it is for native English speakers; often the pitch and volume that are part of "normal" conversation in English are only present in Spanish in the "angry" range of conversation. Consequently the Spanish speaker may experience the European American as arrogant or intimidating. The English speaker may experience the Hispanic as shy, lacking self-confidence, or think the Spanish-speaker is mumbling when they are only speaking in the range that is "normal" for them (Olquin, 1995).

Volume: In business conversation, a quiet and somewhat formal way of speaking is appropriate for the Spanish speaker. The Hispanic can experience the European American as "yelling at me" or showing irritation when the English speaker operates at their normal volume (Olquin, 1995).
Pacing & pause time: If the person’s first language is Spanish, pause time tends to be relatively short. Among indigenous groups, the pause time will be considerably longer, perhaps approaching that of Native people from what is now the continental United States (Bennett, 1996).

Pretty much dead on, bro. Except that the Mexican American and Mexican born Mexican are somewhat different. A Mexican American preffers to be looked in the eye as you speak as a sign of respect. A Mexican American is also not as physicaly touchy and the intra personal space is strictly adhered to. But this is also with respect to situations and different races. if I and another Mexican, Mexican or American born, are in an area or space filled with another race, then the intrapersonal space becomes closer. If we are amongst our kind, its not so close. Amongst the elders of both sides, it is considered a sign of respect for the younger to look downward upon initial communication with an elder. But even then this has its differences in that amongst Mexican born elders its much more pronounced and expected.



I enjoyed reading that very much. Very good job.

Thanks I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I'm a big geek when it comes to cutural dynamics and conflicts and stuff like that, I don't know why but it fascinates me. Maybe its because I too moved from one culture to anouther at a young age.

when you make a move though it makes you very aware of cultural norms of your new and old culturea that you would never of noticed. It makes you more wordly, so to say!
