Culture

Note Important, ceci est un extrait de mon rapport de stage et non l'inverse, 
Cordialement.

Hi,

Today, I talk about the different cultural and social aspect.

The Egyptians are always happy to hear compliments on the beauty of their country. To make good impression with the first contact with an Egyptian speech theirs of a subject which they know. The Egyptians appreciate humour and be not astonished, if your interlocutor says one or two jokes. 

The Egyptians in general are worried by the personal distance than are to it Europeans and they tend to approach more their interlocutors during a conversation. 

A preserving clothing is generally the standard. 

However, you will not have to astonish you to see employees dressed in a way more relaxed in certain services; the reason is that they are badly remunerated and that their wages do not enable them to spend much to get dressed. 

On the other hand, the Egyptians expect that the expatriates carry equipped behaviours. Always call your colleagues by their first name and during official meetings. 

As regards punctuality, people have a very elastic notion of time and the road traffic does not facilitate the things. 

Most of the time, the decisions are made by the person moreover high ranking. 

  Most Egyptians do not show bias in working environment towards the men or the women, whatever their religion or their ethnic group.

See you Later ;)
