RE: Offshoring: Coping with U.S.-India culture clash

Very good article. I work with both India and US employees and often face issues related to cultural differences. Indians take tasks and timelines more casually while Americans adhere to their tasks and timelines. Indians gives excuses for any hiccup or delay while Americans speak truth for the same. Indians are more egoist than Americans and always try to act defensively.

It is not easy to overcome the cultural issues. Best way is to have Indians work in US office and Americans to work from India office for few weeks.It helps to understand work culture and discussions style.
