Germany: Business Traveler's Passport 1.0.1 (iOS)

So you're about to head to Germany for a few days of meetings. All your bags are packed, you're ready to go. You're standing there outside your door. And you realize: you have no idea what Germany is like.Sure, you know where you're staying. Maybe you've got a guidebook that describes places to visit if you manage to scrape together a few hours of sightseeing. But what's Germany really like for doing business? More practically:- How should you greet your business partners?- If you're invited to someone's house, what sort of gift should you bring?- If flowers are OK, what kinds of flowers are appropriate--or inappropriate? - Should you bring an odd number of flowers or an even number?- Are there any special considerations for female travelers?- What do the electrical outlets look like?- Perhaps most importantly: if you order the schweinebraten, what on Earth is that going to look like?Germany: Business Traveler's Passport is designed specifically for businesspeople. It contains a few hundred pages of information on Germany, focusing on areas of particular concern to the business traveler.
