| Abstract | Americans doing business with West Africans are limited in their ability to communicate successfully in that part of the world because of language, stereotyping, and ethnocentrism. Americans must become accustomed to British patterns of speech and writing. Stereotypes of Africa, its people, and its cultures perpetuated by the media keep Americans from recognizing and appreciating the great diversity of the continent. American ethnocentrism and attitudes about foreign cultures in general also create a barrier to communication. Americans must consciously explore African culture and economy to understand the West African perspective. (MSE) |
