When in Japan, do as the Japanese?

Chapter 11 in The “No-Nonsense” Guide to Doing Business in Japan, 2001, pp 131-140 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There is probably no bit of advice you will hear or read more frequently than that variation on an old theme: “when in Japan, do as the Japanese.” You will get it from official sources, you will get it from well-meaning Japanese businessmen, you will get it even at seminars of foreign chambers of commerce. It is mouthed, often parrot-like and without much thought to the matter, by foreign businessmen themselves, especially those who do not practice what they preach.
