In America, "the squeaky wheel gets the grease." In Japan,
"the nail that stands out gets pounded down." American parents who are trying to induce their children to eat their suppers
are fond of saying "think of the starving kids in Ethiopia, and
appreciate how lucky you are to be different from them." Japanese parents are likely to say "Think about the farmer who
worked so hard to produce this rice for you; if you don't eat it,
he will feel bad, for his efforts will have been in vain" (H. Yamada, February 16,1989). A small Texas corporation seeking to
elevate productivity told its employees to look in the mirror and
say "I am beautiful" 100 times before coming to work each day.
Employees of a Japanese supermarket that was recently opened
in New Jersey were instructed to begin the day by holding
hands and telling each other that "he" or "she is beautiful" ("A
Japanese Supermarket," 1989).
