“The Individual Relationship Around Business Korean Key"
Korea is a one out of country that be sure to be counted in the Asian’s great moment. The free economical market this Negara Ginseng becomes a one of top five in the whole the Asia, and be a 15th grade in the world. It’s not wreak, this country is counted as a “ Macan Asia “
Now days, the South
Korea is counted as a country which with a higher enough income by World Bank
and IMF. If we have Seoul as a mother country South Korea, this place really
can be a central place of South Korea,
where is no big gap between poor
people and rich people.
The country that be a family
head from some big companies like LG, Samsung, and Hyundai, has a competitive
knowledge system also can produce labors whose have high motivation and good
skill. All of that related to ethos, culture, also labor’s culture from its
labors.
With the differences
between cultures, the business culture of Korea becomes a challenge for the
foreign entrepreneur. Almost the Korea’s companies are influenced by Confucianism
culture. The companies of Korea generally have a high hierarchy system and centralization
with some people “core “included managers who can make a big decision. All of
job’s descriptions, authority and the work relationship between boss and
employer based on seniorities.
The entrepreneur who
haven’t be ready and be experienced with Confucianism will find obstacle to do
business in Korea. Even tough, there are so many Korean’s people got a
knowledge in Western, the norms of Confucianism still dominant and look clearly
in Korea. The foreign people mustn’t
have to follow social norms in Korea totally. But, they can be more respect if
want to share their carrying and their spirit to learn some key words in the
Korea language and follow some social norms.
Korean’s entrepreneur
hopes that they can fulfill a promise and be on time to come in the meeting.
The first professional traditional that can be done between both of them in
meeting is change name card each card. It is important to make believing also
relationship in order the process can be running well. It doesn’t like in Western,
this process needs time and be patient. Korea’s people are happy to business with the
people that have known before. From the Western’s people side, Koreans are
considered almost “sensitive “. They don’t like to lost their face and be
placed in the difficult position in front of the other people.
The first meeting is usually
to grow up the believing. So they don’t refer to main problem. We have to be formal
person until the Koreans or the delegations show the enjoy attitude. The
successful of business also related to the social relationship. Sharing dinner
each other can be a way to grow up the relation that can push the occurring of
believing. The Koreans businessmen are great negotiation. They admire the
companies that have delegations which can negotiate perseveringly, but doesn’t
much aggressive. The sensitive issues generally be told letter, while the
process runs, especially if related difficult things and financial problem.
Encouraging to be
introduced through to both of sides than contact its life or contacts them
randomly. To meet the special person, it must be related to how can be
introducing done. A credible
mediator can help to get the believing from the Korean’s businessmen. Even less,
if the respect delegations. Usually, they need time to decide the decision
because this case is taken by the collective agreement. The time which needs a longer than the
perspective before.
If we can from the
language imagine before. Their perceptions and understanding often be lost from
the truth, what the Western people. The culture differences often occurs the
big enough hindrance in the communications. Usually, the western people try to
repeat or make in some repetition in order to make understanding well. In
another hand, they change their own notes each others in order to understand
the main of both of sides.
In Korea, legal
document is not important if it is considered with individual relationship.
Also they don’t like detailed contract or difficult. They are be more like the
flexible contract in order to do the adaptations with the changes of
conditions, that happened perhaps. It is more important to make relations based
on believing and gives advantages than make a long and detail contract. For Korea’s
people, “what “ is not important in the contain of , even “ who” signing it,
and “why“ contract is mad.
Entertainment is also
as an important position in the relationship in Korea. They always compete to
drink and change a little present. Now,
golf as a favorite sport and become a interested thing. By this activity, the
business relation can become more personal. The knowledge about family, state,
hobby, birthday, experience, until the philosophy of individual can be gotten
by the entertainment and sport. Even, one out of informal agreement from the
side that has believed can be more influenced than the written agreement
document.
The concept of Korea’s
culture basically included as Kibun, Inhawa, and Confusianism. There is no
meaning in the word Kibun in English. But, as a concept that grasp all of life
aspect Koreas people, that word can be described as a pride of, mood,
countenance or the way to look. In struggle to save Kibun, properly in the
business context, a person must respect to others and avoid all of things that
can make person becomes shy. In the cultureless, where social harmonist is
considered as an important thing, the ability to intemperate others mind (often
be called Nunchi ) is important to run the business.
Inhawa is an imaginary
of Confisian believing. It means that the approach of Korea harmonization. As a
one of collective civilization, the decision from discussion result is
important to maintain a harmonization in Korea.
In order the Inhawa can run in accordance with, Koreas people always try
to be with positive answers and averse to ignore directly. In the Korea’s
culture, this thing is mirror in the company’s loyalty, obedience, and labor’s
attitude.
However Confucianism is
a philosophy that can influence a lot of Korean’s people. The root of Korean’s culture,
so it infiltrates to other people in there. This philosophy forms a moral,
national law and life style in Korea generally, starts from family to the their
social life.
Released from another influenced,
South Korea can still maintain its identity and clear characteristic and
homogeny. There are so many influences that are felt from the believing. One
more again, Korea has an exciting view and landscape. Korean’s civilizations
maintain the legacy or unique aircraft also the language that formed by the
long history and curving. As a result, that thing is mirrored in the culture
and working culture or it business.
The changes of Korea
still to be continued. Even though this country has known as its story that
enough complicated from Japan in the last of World War II, they still face the Cold
War. But, Korea produced the significant increasing and more grow up that will
become one out of the big one in the Asia, except Japan and China the business
opportunity that grow up in the Korea also increase the interested and the
curious the its culture knowledge.
