Japan Business Etiquette -James Jackson

 Business in this culture is very formal. They ask that you call 1-2 hours before to confirm the meting. They also like to work on planned agendas and you must wait to be seated.  Men typically must wear dark suits in the winter months and lighter colors in the summer. Word of warning never wear black suit white shirt and black tie for they are funeral colors. Women must have either short or tied hair so they wont confuse you as the secretary or other lower positions. Women must wear either trouser suits or long skirts suits. they also love to exchange small gifts to one another as a sign of respect.
Their biggest tradition in the business world is the Japanese business card. this card it a sign of up most respect and it not like the standard card. this card may include a small give of money and is expected to be saved and respected. Leaving this card around is the ultimate slap in the face.
