Hello all my greek friends Actually the help of JCN and Highlander as being foreigners, who most communicate with greeks, could be great as well (as any other poster).
So, what I need is ~4 pages essay with topic "Case of Intercultural Communications: Greeks". I could have chosen any culture I communicated with, but as I was 2 times (overall a month) in Greece it was easy choice. The thing is it has to be out of two parts. First, the general attibutes of communicating with Greeks, their peculiarity, common things they do and stuff. The 2nd part is my personal experience communicating with them.
Your help about the general part would be very appreciated. Well, I could give some hints what it could be or you can skip this part and tell anything you want about communcation with greeks.
How do people greet each other, how they introduce, what is the distance between talking people, do they tend to speak loud in public places. Puctuality, how much minutes is acceptable to be late: to the meeting? to the party (more official)? meeting of the friends?
Do people use nonverbal communication much (gestures, signs, moving hands while talking)? How long does it take to trust unknown person? How do people look to conflict situations, how they act then? How do people look to task making (manjana - tommorow, imedetialy, wait till deadline?). How decision making is done (only bosses decide or regular workers can make decisions too?). How do people react to power (president as equal as worker? older people are more respected than younger people?). How open people are, are they emotional to first met person, foreigner? And etc etc.
Its just hints/questions you can answer and theres much more you can say about communication, so feel free to add anything you want. Few sentences can be as much helpful as long answers and I'll be thankful for anything you provide me here
