    German Business Etiquette (Dos and Donts)

    DO take plenty of business cards with you and ensure they include full

    details of your background, qualifications, and titles.

    DOmaintain direct eye-contact when addressing German colleagues,

    especially during initial introductions.

    DO use the formal version of you (Sie), unless someone specificallyinvites you to use the informal Du form. It is usually best to let your

    German counterpart take the initiative of proposing the informal form

    of address (this implies readiness to develop a personal relationship).

  • 8/7/2019 asgmnt jumaat

    21/28

    DONT attempt to continue negotiations after a contract has been

    signed. Your German colleagues may view this with suspicion, which

    could lead to an unsuccessful business agreement.

    DONT use exaggerated or indirect communication styles during

    business meetings with you German counterparts. It creates an

    impression of insincerity and dishonesty.

    Business Practices in Germany

    First names are generally only used with family and close friends and

    colleagues. Therefore, always use last names and appropriate titles.

    Business meetings follow a formal procedure. German managers work

    from precise and detailed agendas, which are usually followed

    rigorously; moreover, meetings always aim for decisive outcomes and

    results, rather than providing a forum for open and general discussion.

  • 8/7/2019 asgmnt jumaat

    22/28

    German business protocol requires that colleagues should be greeted

    with a firm, but brief, handshake on both arrival and departure.

    In German business dealings, it is important to provide solid facts and

    examples to back up proposals, given the German preference for

    analytical thinking and rational explanations.

    technology development.

    where the vending machine is located.
