Jean Safari, an American
manager, was investigating a serious error made by a Japanese worker at the
Japanese subsidiary of a US
multinational. A component had been inserted upside down and the entire batch
had been pulled out of production to be reworked. The cost of this was high.
Jean asked the Japanese plant director about which employee had made the error.
Had she been identified? What action was being taken against her? She was
amazed when the director claimed not to know. “The whole work group has
accepted responsibility,” he told her. How do you understand this explanation?

I was frustrated
with a low-English-level Korean student who never asked questions in class. My
goal was to equalize classroom participation, and one aspect of it was to have
students ask questions when they didn’t understand something during class. I
taught techniques of how to ask a question, which the students from Mexico
readily adopted, but not the Korean student. Why?

Litz met a Chinese doctor in the
United States,
and fell in love with him and they got married. Litz’s husband had long wished
to bring his mother to live with them for a while. So, they invited her over. They
are very happy about their mother’s visit. Litz knows being filial to parents
is a great value Chinese people cherish. As wife of a Chinese, she tries to be
as filial as her husband. Two days after the mother’s arrival, Litz talked to
her husband, Dick, while his mother was sitting in the garden enjoying the
sunshine.
Litz: Dick, how
long is your mum going to stay?
Dick: I don’t
know. I haven’t asked her.
Litz: Why not ask
her?
Dick: What do you
mean by asking her?
Litz: I mean what
I said. Just ask her how long she’ going to stay.
What was going to
happen the next day made Litz very confused. The mother overheard their
conversation and decided to leave for China the very afternoon. Litz had
never expected that her visit should be so shot.
Why did the
Chinese mother-in-law decide to leave the very afternoon? What went wrong?

. Linda was a
young Puerto Rican girl studying in a New
York City high school. She was once suspected of
smoking with a group of troublemakers and was punished with them by the
principal. She was thought so because when she was interviewed by the
principal, she avoided meeting his eyes and only stared down at the floor,
hence being regarded as sly and dishonest. Her mother insisted that she was a
good girl while the principle firmly believed that she was not. This led to a
demonstration of Puerto Rican parents at the school the next morning. And later
the principal found that Linda was indeed a gentle and sweet girl.

6. ttending a conference in Rio de Janeiro, Linda struck up a
conversation with a young lady from the local group. As the lady talked, she
appeared to be making a physical advance, moving toward Linda every time Linda
moved away. Eventually, Linda found her back against the wall, unable to
retreat any further. Concerned and uncomfortable, she excused herself curtly,
left the party, and did not attend any others. Why?
