Great article. Good tips on how to get outside of our own “box” and think from someone else’s perspective. A lot of articles talk about this, but don’t give you the how.

I agree that Project Management is all about humans and i think you’ve given a fairly good perspective of the human fallacies of most people when the work across cultural groups. Interesting choice of topic as well. I actually haven’t studied Project Management – i learnt it via Deskaway – its fantastically well built and takes into account project management basics that really backward integrate and ‘teach’ it to you. On another note – here in India i could write an entire post on tips while working with ‘caste’ specific teams. Caste is a big thing in India – i’ve often noticed how touchy people are about it. Then again – dont you think, software seals these problems and boundaries?
