Dear Deborah,
 Thank you for the invitation to your project. My name is Pedro, I’m a Portuguese citizen in his mid-thirties, a clinical psychologist with a PhD in anthropology.

MAKE A NEW INTERNATIONAL CONNECTION
Doing business in another country is much more than flying out, staying in posh hotels and eating different food. It’s entering into a different world where everyday business events have different rules. Understanding how different peoples across the world go about their day-to-day business, how they conduct meetings, undertake negotiations, make a sales pitch – and even how they regard their boss – will help us all develop Cultural Intelligence and appreciate the value of cultural diversity.
It will make us more successful in our professional lives.
