Here was my perspective from my first ever business meeting in Japan. Thank goodness for the Interpreter and the patience and contributions of so many helpful and engaged team mates!
I think I learned more from them than they did me, but I hope they got a lot of value out of it. The consecutive translation was very tough, but we made it, I only hope I didn’t wear out my translator for tomorrow’s class. It was HARD!
And while at 6’2” I am still a big gaijin, I’m not as big as I would have been say, 20 years ago. Yes, Asians are still mostly smaller, but I looked into the eyes of quite a few 6’+ Japanese.
