Intercultural barriers in this scenario could include any four of the following:
Language, culture, kinesics, stereotyping, and attitude to time.
A language barrier might exist where the Chinese manager could speak only limited
English and would struggle with English. Likewise, the local staff would not
understand Chinese.
Cultural differences might include different attitudes to dress codes, greetings,
formality, punctuality and work ethics.
Kinesics might cause a barrier since the Chinese manager would have different
expectations regarding body language, gestures, etc.
Stereotyping might arise, for example, where the Chinese manager might think that
the local people were not time conscious or were lazy or lacking in focus. The local
people might think the Chinese manager would be inflexible, work long hours, be
lacking in empathy.
Attitude to time barriers might arise where the Chinese manager might arrive at work
early, take very limited breaks and work long hours and expect the same from the
local people. They, on the other hand, might arrive at work on time or be late for
work, adhere to normal rest and meal breaks and leave work according to the set
daily working hours.
