New Software Breaks Down Cultural Barriers for Business Travelers

International business deals often fail not so much because of external factors (economics, politics, etc.) but because of a lack of understanding between the two sides concerning their cultural differences. To help bridge this divide, Executive Planet, Inc. is delighted to announce the release of Executive Planet™ for Palm OS, the first international business culture and etiquette guide for Palm Powered handhelds.

Executive Planet™ for Palm OS provides businesspeople with in-depth advice and crucial tips on how to conduct business with foreigners with confidence and avoid cultural misunderstandings. The software consists of 42 country guides, each containing tips and advice on negotiating, entertaining, making appointments, gift-giving, addressing others, public behavior, appropriate/inappropriate conversation topics, and more. The software lets busy professionals prepare for intercultural business meetings and social events from anywhere.

The software is a mobile version of the popular Executive Planet™ business culture and etiquette Web site, used by thousands of businesspeople daily. The Executive Planet™ Web site is an “expert community” with each country’s content developed and maintained by an expert in intercultural business. Visitors to the site can also ask the experts questions on an on-line message board.

The Executive Planet™ Web site has been featured in TIME Magazine and CNN Headline News, and has garnered a Golden Web Award (http://www.goldenwebawards.com/) and World’s Best Web Site Award (http://www.worldbestwebsites.com/). Executive Planet™ for Palm OS is available for $19.95 from http://www.executiveplanet.com/Palm_Application.html A free trial is also available for download.
