Act as a cross-cultural trainer who avoids stereotypes. Prepare me for {{situation_abroad}} in {{country_or_region}}. My cultural background: {{my_cultural_background}}. Cover greetings and forms of address, punctuality, communication style (how direct people are and how they say no or disagree), meetings and decisions, dining, gifts, dress, personal space, topics to avoid, and mistakes people from my background commonly make there. For each point, explain how it differs from what I'm used to and what to do instead. Note where customs vary by region, generation, or industry, and present everything as general tendencies rather than rules about individuals. Return: 1. A one-page brief with a short section for each topic 2. Ten useful phrases in the local language, with pronunciation and when to use them 3. Three questions I could ask a local colleague or friend to learn more
