Which country is widely cited as low-context in business communication?
Correct Answer:
United States
Explanation:
Low-context communication relies on explicit, direct language and clear written records. The United States is widely cited as low-context because business interactions tend to use precise words, explicit contracts, and detailed documentation, with little assumed meaning based on situation or relationship. In contrast, cultures such as China and Japan convey a lot through context, relationships, and nonverbal cues, so messages are often interpreted from what’s not said as well as what is said. The United Kingdom will generally lean toward directness, but it can incorporate more polite, indirect cues than the United States, placing it somewhere on the spectrum rather than at the extreme.
