Good Cultures & bad attitudes


One common rather very common topic in payroll is “cultural issues”.
I hate this negative term which puts a beautiful thing called culture in a negative shade. I am very much for discussion on cultural differences…..it make sense and it is real. But no culture can be an issue. Cultures are beautiful, they have history, they are embedded in every festival of the country, they have parental value, they are spiritual, and they are more long term…..
But what we get hear is 3 folded:
1. Personal attitude issue, we get carried away those few people we meet during our project or work.
2. If Culture X is issue to Culture Y …than Culture Y is also an issue to Culture X.
3. Cultural requirements and professional requirements. Concerned stake holder never attempt to differentiate these 2 especially in a environment like payroll which encompasses personal .
