The impact of culture differences on a project team cannot be overstated. The sooner we recognize that people with different cultural background will
- express themselves differently
- make decisions differently
- view/deal with issues differently
- have (inhibited by) unique social norms.
- have different festive celebrations that would impact project schedule.
and build these considerations into our project planning, the better will be the collaboration be in a project team, and the greater the efficiency of the team.
