Working with two countries that are geographically close, you might fall into the trap of thinking that their cultures have nothing but similarities.
In this episode, Yuliia and Inessa discuss some of the differences in communication between Ukraine and Romania based on their observations and interviews with their Ukrainian and Romanian colleagues.
