DEVELOPING CROSS CULTURAL SENSITIVITY: A STUDY OF INDIAN NETWORKING ETIQUETTE

Summary/Abstract: Any interaction among individuals should be governed by certain etiquette and its absence would result in a huge loss, for an individual or enterprise. Paradoxically, despite India being culturally diverse, one cannot assume that this would ensure success in the international space. Against this backdrop, my paper has examined the experiences of Indians, in networking etiquette - covering greeting, salutation, dining, hospitality, gifting and time etiquette, these being primary areas of interaction. By drawing upon the experiences of Indians, who have travelled across the globe, my research has outlined general suggestions, which could ease interactions, in a cross cultural space.
