Lolita, a Mexican business woman, came to Redmond Washington to negotiate a business deal with Microsoft. Lolita, assuming business was formal, dressed in a formal suit, nylons, and high heels. She met with the Vice President of Worldwide Sales at Microsoft, Kevin Johnson, and greeted him with, "Good morning Vice President Johnson." Kevin was dressed in jeans and sneakers and addressed Lolita with, "Hello Lolita, nice to finally meet you in person." Lolita was offended by this greeting. This example illustrates which assumption about intercultural communication?

b) all of these are true.

Explanation:

The scenario described in the question illustrates differences in communication rules that suffer from different cultural influences, this is what we perceive when Mexican Lolita may have been surprised that the American Kevin Johnson communicated with her in a more informal way at a formal work meeting. , and therefore felt offended, as he took into account the type of cultural communication in his country of origin, disregarding the intercultural differences in communication that occur in different countries.

So the ideal is that in a case like the one described in the question, where there are negotiations for business deal with international companies, employees are prepared to relate professionally with different types of people, observing the type of communication context, understanding that there are differences intercultural experiences that imply in the way people relate to each other even in the work environment, and above all, maintain ethics and respect for each and every culture different from yours.
