Any experienced traveler knows that you can't just copy and paste what you know in the United States to be true and expect it to work in another. This is especially the case when you're negotiating across borders. Ron Fortin, the founder and CEO of Homeschool Spanish Academy, learned this when traveling to set up a business in Guatemala. In this episode, he shares with Christine McKay the key lessons he learned when working in another country. He talks about the differences he had found between emotional negotiation and ego, the contracting process between Guatemala and the United States, and how each country deals with conflict. Join in on this conversation and learn from the inside out how negotiations across borders work and what you can expect along the way.
