When speaking or negotiating with a Russian speaking counterpart, have you ever been in a situation where you feel that you are all talking past each other?
The nonverbal cues might not match the words you understand, each counterpart might be trying to communicate different things, which makes it difficult to agree because of the lack of understanding for each other’s point and real thoughts behind the used words.
This is a very common challenge when conversing with counterparts in Russian speaking countries, as well as when trying to grasp the full content of a conversation between two Russian speaking counterparts.
The lack of communication, feedback, emotions and body language may also make it difficult to understand the person you have to communicate with and to reach your professional goals through this exchange.
To prevent misunderstandings and ensure efficient communication, I invite you to join me for a quick chat to identify what it is that you personally need when dealing with the Russian language/culture/clients etc. Feel free to contact me!
