The Dutch culture is unique.This can,of course,be said of each culture.The Dutch want to be modern and progressive,but also wish to preserve their standards and values.The following are a number of pointers to help you understand the Dutch way of life.
Getting acquainted
In business settings,the Dutch are known for their professionalism; they like to get down to business straight away and have a no-nonsense culture.At the first meeting hands are shaken.When introducing someone,his/her function is explained briefly and any applicable titles are mentioned.After this,people are called by their surnames only or even by their first names.Titles are not used after the introduction.Many foreigners who come to Holland to work find it surprising that even the managing director of the company is called by his/her first name.Modesty is also part of the Dutch business culture,as generally,the managing director of a Dutch company will rarely use a large private chauferred car.
Presents
In Holland presents are usually unwrapped right away.The recipient will often showcase the gift or hand it around.The person giving the present is thanked on the spot.It is not the custom in Holland,as it is in many other cultures,to give someone a gift in return straight away.A Dutch person who is invited for dinner at someone’s house,will usually bring some flowers or chocolates.The best gifts for foreigners to bring are those are not easily found in Holland.
Communication
The Dutch make a clear distinction between their private lives and their business lives.When negotiating they tend to be rather straightforward.They do not spend days getting to know their business partners,in contrast to some Asian cultures.To the Dutch,a contract means the end of the negotiations:agreed is agreed.Words,invitations and promises are often taken literally.
Food
The social aspect of meals,is often more important than the food itself in Holland.Many Dutch skip breakfast on workdays.Lunch,in contrast,is an important meal.This is a somewhat simple meal,including bread and coffee,tea,dairy or cheese products (very popular) and some fruit.Dutch cusine features cheeses and meat dishes,especially beef and pork.
Talking about….
Informal is not the same in Holland as emotional or very personal.At informal gatherings people do talk about more personal topics.However,the Dutch are reserved about their private lives.Though few topics are universally taboo,it is not considered polite to ask a Dutch acquaintance how much he or she earns.
