Whats the work attire in japan? If I hada meeting with Japan executives what is extremely important to them? -

I have an extra credit assignment for school and I don t know where to find this stuff. I have more questions about Japan along with Italy, Greec, Germany, and Mexico. If you would like to answer just tell me.

Work attire for men is dark suit, matching dress shirt and tie; all should be conservative in color and pattern and be in great condition (wrinkle-free). In the hot summer months a regular businessman would be ok wearing a short sleeved dress shirt, but if you are meeting with a Japanese executive the entire suit would be expected. The same guidelines go for women: dress suit (or skirt) in conservative colors and cut. Generally employees should not have visible piercings, and tatoos are a big no-no in most public places. Most younger have dyed hair that is not the original color (brows and reds), but this may not be considered appropriate by traditional people.

You would wear a suit, and be very curtious when conversing.and always call them by there last name follwed by quot;san. example. Tanaka- san. And don;t look bored in the meeting , even if you are! http://www.takemetojapan.com

You would have to dress and act professionally. You would have to work long hours and overtime.

Hi If you are going for business to Japan you have to keep in mind that this (Japan) is a country of contrasts. You have to pay attention not only to explicit communication but to body language as well. My recommendations are: - Dress in dark colors, executive outfit, always use a tie, avoid red and yelow color. - Do not look straight to the eyes for long time, just look briefly and turn your eyes into documents or something else, never to the floor. - Act naturally, they expect you to be a foreigner, not a quot;culture clonequot; - Receive the calling cards with both hands and place them neatly in front of you. bring MANY. - Make an effort to learn everyones names and attach quot;sanquot; at the end. i.e: Alejandro-san, Suzuki-San - Check the resources at the botton, specially how to bow If you need assistance for your business trip in Japan I will be happy to help you...just send me an email. Regards Alejandro

Dark suit and tie. Short hair. No metal on your head. Try going to www.japan-guide.com.

You would wear a business suit, of course, and you would definitely bring business cards, and lots of them. People here exchange them a lot, even if it s just at a school meeting or something with your child s teacher. After meeting someone, you would say something like, quot;Hajimemashitequot; (lit. begin, like lets begin a relationship) or Yoroshiku onegai shimasu (please do..lol) The other answerers summed it up, be on your best behavior, listen, and pretend to be enjoying the meeting.
