Synopsis
Culture Smart guides help travellers have a more meaningful and successful time abroad through a better understanding of the local culture. Chapters on values, attitudes, customs, and daily life will help you make the most of your visit, while tips on etiquette and communication will help you navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas., After years in comparative isolation Libya is opening up again. Its relations with the rest of the world have now improved, and with the lifting of sanctions it is likely that more outsiders will have a chance to visit it both for business and for pleasure.To many the country and its people are an enigma. It is an Arab country unlike other Arab countries. It is an African country, but it doesn t feel like Africa. For the uninitiated, the Libyans are difficult to fathom. But their values and attitudes have been shaped by their past and traditions, many of which date back centuries.This slim volume aims to offer an insight into the Libyan people and their view of life. Such information will enhance your stay in their country and ensure that you do not commit too many faux pas. There are chapters on customs and traditions, and the rapidly changing nature of modern Libyan life, with advice on what to expect and how to behave appropriately in different situations. For the business traveler there is guidance on how to deal with government structures and policies, and how to make the most of the opportunities that present themselves.Above all, Culture Smart! Libya should help you to become acquainted with a nation of resilient, outgoing, and friendly people who, when they greet you with the words ahlan wa sahlan, are completely genuine in their welcome., Culture Smart! provides essential information on attitudes, beliefs and behavior in different countries, ensuring that you arrive at your destination aware of basic manners, common courtesies, and sensitive issues. These concise guides tell you what to expect, how to behave, and how to establish a rapport with your hosts. This inside knowledge will enable you to steer clear of embarrassing gaffes and mistakes, feel confident in unfamiliar situations, and develop trust, friendships, and successful business relationships. Culture Smart! offers illuminating insights into the culture and society of a particular country. It will help you to turn your visit-whether on business or for pleasure-into a memorable and enriching experience.

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Purchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
