1. Contract: The writing which contains the Agreement of the
Parties, with the terms and conditions of their obligations to do, or
not do a particular thing . . .
The “Culture” of the Deal
Presented by

2. Successful consummation of any venture – business or otherwise in
today’s global community (with its varied socio-economic issues)
requires a competitive and cultural understanding of, and integration
with the chosen market or opportunity.
Effectiveness of the process (and resultant sustained profitability)
will be directly related to an understanding of “local” and/or
market culture
Bridging language barriers is just a beginning (this does not mean
Non-English; it may also be “industry-speak”).
Each market and opportunity also contains its own cultural nuances
and a spectrum of business concepts. Building a model which is
mutually satisfactory to all interested parties is critical to success
of any venture.
3. Every aspect of a project will have a cultural overtone:
Licensing
Scope
Motivations of the parties
Structure
Local employment
Regulatory environment
The principles are universal in their application. In order to navigate
the gauntlet of regulation, politics, competition and bureaucracy,
cultural fluency is essential.
In international ventures, a great “interpreter” may only be the
the beginning. The Former Soviet Union (“FSU”) presents a prime
example . . . “Westerners” ofter reference the fifteen (15) unique
Republics/State of the FSU and each of their varied autonomous
regions as “Russia” – often a project ending mistake.

Understanding and Implementation takes patience and time
The need to “understand” historical and cultural underpinnings is essential to successful
navigation of the particular market. Transplanted business models often fail
Unlike many “western” style transactions which focus on the implementation phases
of a project (documentation, terms and conditions of the relationship, etc.), Global success generally
requires a period of “courtship: with a focus on the learning process of cultural nuances of the
parties, the market and “getting to know your partner(s). Friendship, Trust, and then the Deal
and the willingness to take the time to listen, learn and apply are the keys to success
