The present report will undertake the comparison between two countries as Japan and USA.
To build effective cross culture there is need to focus on two model as Hofsted, Halls and Halls and
Will. Additionally, evaluation will be undertaken on key perspective of three key traditional cross
culture analysis.
TASK 1
Hofsted model- It is defined as framework for cross cultural communication. This has impact over
society culture and on the value of members. This model aids to undertake the comparison with the
power distance, individualism, masculinity, uncertainty avoidance index and long term orientation
etc. This is model that aids to study the culture of two different nation as Japan and USA etc.
It is model that aids to represent the culture independent preference for one state over
another that distinguish from each other. Therefore, country scores on the dimension is relative.
Human and simultaneously all are unique. In other words that can be stated that culture can be used
meaningfully with the help of comparison. It is model that is context of following dimensions. It is
the model that identifies the dimension of culture that are globally applicable and including family
life. It is model that is very effective in order to undertake the distinguish between varied nation,
culture and culture dimensions and this has huge impact on business setting (Laroche, Kalamas
and Cézard, 2015).
Hall and hall model- It is defined as crucial theory that is consisted of four parts such as context,
time, space and information (Pentina and Guilloux, 2015). Therefore, this is theory that can be
sometimes very accurate when the another part is erroneous. In this, high context culture that
termed out as collectivist, have members that from stable, close relationship and give more value to
interpersonal relationship. This has defined high and low context cultural components and this
divided into following categories as are-
 Context- High context culture termed out as there are many contextual components that
must taken into account and assist people to understand the rules. Low context culture ideas
are expected to be outspoken. High context culture termed out as make communicate in
ways that is implicit and rely highly on context (Diehl, Terlutter and Mueller, 2016). On
the other hand, low context culture is totality dependent over the explicit verbal
communication.
 Time- According to this theory, there can be monochromes and polyphonous culture.
