There is nothing wrong if we can continue to be cautious, especially when traveling abroad for a business trip. First and foremost, we cannot afford to offend other people because of cultural differences. This is so essential when trying to impress our target clients in the market. The more you understand their culture, the more you can be creative to impress them.
How much of your attention do you devote to cultural etiquette when leaving for a work trip abroad?

I think that I would pay some attention when it comes to visiting a foreign country. It is very important to respect the culture of a different country when you visit the country. So, studying about the culture is incredibly important. Perhaps you may not want to offend people by disrespecting them. It is also quite important to learn the language of another nation as well.

I hope they notion of yours will reach the others to know what to do when visiting other countries. Firsthand, they need to research the cultures and practices of a particular country, so that they will not violate any acceptable norms there.

I do agree with that. At some cases, there are some countries who tend to respect people older than them. The best course of action is to bring older employees with you to make the negotiation.
Everyone deserves to be respected irrespective of their age and their origin because it is the only way they would be willing and comfortable to do any kind of business with you.
Just like my country, they respect elders a lot and always listen to the words of elders as they do feel elders words are full of wisdom,by doing this , if not for your sake at least they will consider the elderly one around.
It is very important for you to understand the culture of the country where you are being transferred for any kind of business purposes so that you don't get yourself into trouble.
