    Thanks for putting this up. It was really interesting.

    I am an American but I do not negotiate in the manner suggested in the diagram. That does not mean that I represent the way most Americans negotiate, of course. The fact is, in most cases for me, I am involved in "negotiations" with multiple stakeholders in an organization. The IT folks want their pound of flesh, the finance people have their needs, the purchasing people need to put their imprint on the deal, etc. Negotiating with a network manager is much different from negotiating with an accountant or with a project manager. But, in most cases, there are no theatrics as described in the above model. Business is business. It either works or it doesn't. No need for gnashing of teeth nor baring of fangs.

    I suppose it might accurately describe the antics that go on in used car sales lots around the country, however.

    Just wanted to say that there are and there will always be individuals that don't fit to this frame, but really interesting article, and definitely will print this at a larger size so I can keep it somwhere near, on a wall near my PC for example.

    Thanks!

    Australian one is pretty accurate.
    When visiting clients, they nearly always offer me a cup of tea. I can't stand it.

    Good article to know the Communication Patterns around the Globe.
    I believe that this kind of presentation is possible only when you have a common spoken language in the world.

    Because in a country like India, where there are 28+ states and each state is having a different language, so is it possible to draw the same chart?
