    Canada. Business Ethics

    Uploaded by

    Aleksandra Markova
    Canada is a multicultural country with many different ethnic groups and cultures that have influenced its business culture. The two main traditions are Anglo-Canadian and French-Canadian, while indigenous cultures are also preserved. Canadians are known for their friendly yet reserved nature, using polite language like "please" and "thank you." Business management styles vary but emphasize motivation, and Canadians prefer restraint in negotiations. Successful businessmen dress professionally and women often hold high positions. Business meetings commonly take place over lunch or dinner.

    CANADA'S BUSINESS ETHICS

    MARKOVA ALEKSANDRA
    25 GROUP, FEUP
    ABOUT CANADA
    • CANADA IS A MULTICULTURAL COUNTRY WITH MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLES. THIS FACT HAS
    LEFT AN IMPRINT ON THE PUBLIC LIFE OF THE COUNTRY, AND ON ITS BUSINESS CULTURE.

    • CANADA'S TWO MAIN TRADITIONS AND CULTURES ARE ANGLO-CANADIAN AND FRENCH-
    CANADIAN. THE PRESERVATION OF THE INDIGENOUS INDIAN AND ESKIMO CULTURES IS
    ALSO NOTICEABLE. THE GOVERNMENT OF THE COUNTRY FOCUSES ITS EFFORTS ON A
    POLICY OF MULTICULTURALISM AND COEXISTENCE OF DIFFERENT ETHNIC GROUPS. THIS
    OFTEN COMPLICATES THE SITUATION FOR FOREIGN BUSINESSMEN.
    BUSINESS ATMOSPHERE IN CANADA

    • THE BUSINESS ATMOSPHERE IN CANADA IS


    EUROPEAN. BUT IN THE EAST THE FRENCH CULTURE,
    BASED ON DIGNITY, IS EVIDENT; IN THE SOUTH,
    MAINLY IN ONTARIO, THE OPEN AMERICAN TYPE OF
    CULTURE PREVAILS, AND THE MOST INTERNATIONAL
    IN WESTERN CANADA, IN BRITISH COLUMBIA.
    CANADIANS' NATURE
    • CANADIANS ARE BY NATURE FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL,
    BUT MORE RESERVED THAN AMERICANS. CANADA IS
    A VERY OPEN SOCIETY, SO FRIENDLY BEHAVIOR IS
    THE NORM WHEN MEETING BUSINESS PARTNERS,
    AND SOCIAL TOLERANCE IS THE NORM. THEY OFTEN
    USE THE WORDS «PLEASE» AND «THANK YOU».
    TACTFULNESS DISTINGUISHES CANADIANS FROM
    THOSE WITH WHOM THEY INTERACT; IN PUBLIC
    THEY RESTRAIN THEIR FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS.
    MANAGEMENT STYLE
    • THE LEADERSHIP STYLE IN CANADIAN COMPANIES VARIES GREATLY, FROM AUTHORITARIAN
    TO DEMOCRATIC, GROUP DECISION-MAKING. CANADIANS TAKE PRIDE IN THE COMPANY THEY
    WORK FOR, AND MANAGEMENT KNOWS HOW TO MOTIVATE THEIR STAFF.

    • Canadians prefer restraint in


    business communication, so
    they behave strictly in
    negotiations and keep their
    thoughts short.
    DATING
    • WHEN INTRODUCTIONS ARE MADE, A HAND IS
    PRESENTED, A NAME IS CALLED, AND THEN THE
    PLACE OF WORK. EYE CONTACT IS VERY
    IMPORTANT TO CANADIANS.
    • CANADIANS ARE VERY QUICK TO BECOME
    «YOU». IT'S A TESTAMENT TO THEIR PRINCIPLE
    THAT «BEST FRIENDS DO BEST BUSINESS».
    THE SIGN OF A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSMAN

    • THE SIGN OF A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSMAN IN CANADA IS


    HIS CLOTHING. DURING BUSINESS MEETINGS A CANADIAN
    WILL PREFER A DARK SUIT, AND AT INFORMAL EVENTS LESS
    STRICT, BUT ELEGANT CLOTHING.
    • WOMEN IN CANADA ARE SOCIALLY EQUAL IN THEIR RIGHTS,
    WHICH IS WHY THEY OFTEN HOLD HIGH POSITIONS.
    BUSINESS MEETINGS
    • CANADIANS LIKE TO HOLD BUSINESS
    MEETINGS OVER LUNCH, EXECUTIVE EVENTS
    IN RESTAURANTS, AND IF IN THE EVENING, IN
    THEIR HOMES. THEY VALUE QUALITY VERY
    MUCH. THE COUNTRY'S CUSTOMS ARE VERY
    SIMILAR TO EUROPEAN ONES, SO THEY ARE
    UNDERSTANDABLE TO UKRAINIANS.
    THANK YOU FOR
    YOUR ATTENTION!
