"Самая громкая утка" - это бизнес-фабула, написанная в доступном стиле, которая предлагает альтернативный взгляд на многокультурный рабочий коллектив через использование практических историй и культурных анекдотов. Например, китайцы учат своих детей выражению "Самая громкая утка получает выстрел", точка зрения, которая сохраняется и во взрослой жизни, в то время как многие американцы учатся выражению "Самый скрипучий колесо получает смазку". В результате возникают два разных способа ведения бизнеса, ни один из которых не обязательно является правильным или лучшим. Понимая точку зрения других, можно лучше с ними сотрудничать.
The Loudest Duck: Moving Beyond Diversity While Embracing Differences To Achieve Success At Work By Laura Liswood ACredible new book from Ana Liswood explores the ways that people of different cultures approach issues at work. She dispels the myth that Western ways are better than Eastern ones, because they bring success, and demonstrates that there is no "right" way to accomplish anything. Rather, each culture produces its own strengths and tends towards different approaches.The author characterizes a North American worker as one who strives hard but doesn't know when to give up, whereas Chinese employees tend to seek out solutions and are workaholics. When examining both societies may lead to more productive results than strictly following Western principles in the U.S. or Eastern practices in China.Liswood cites the earliest examples of Apple computer co-founder Steve Jobs and China\'s founding father Mao Zedong to refute the idea that one culture\'s methods always apply productivity and success.Rather than declaring victory over diversity, Liswood encourages managers to learn about and respect the differences that come with globalization. Some scenarios are demystified so readers don\'t feel completely smitten by Western business philosophies and can engage others more successfully at work, at home, and in personal relationships.This useful read offers viewpoint into routinely ignored diversity topics and differences among nations. Clear writing and wise advice complement this easy-to-read volume for any senior executive or personnel manager charged with achieving international harmony and advancing productivity in their businesses.

Описание книги от Laura Liswood A.
Written in an accessible style, The Loudest Duck is a business fable that offers an alternate view of a multicultural workplace through the use of practical stories and cultural anecdotes. For instance, the Chinese teach their children, «The loudest duck gets shot,» a viewpoint that gets carried into adulthood, while many Americans are taught, «The squeaky wheel gets the grease.» As a result, you find two distinct ways of doing business, neither one being necessarily the right or better way. By understanding others' viewpoint, you can understand how better to work with them.
