Hi, looking for some advice here!
I'm 32 year old western female engineer and now I'm working on a project with frequent business trips to Egypt (Alexandria). After first few trips I have experienced the cultural differences and looking for tips -what's the best way to make Egyptians (especially men, especially ones without high education) see you as a professional first, rather than a western woman.
Apart from the obvious such as dressing conservatively, demonstrating technical expertise.
What are the top tips?
Is it ok to introduce yourself as engineer *last name*?
Also interested to hear ‘never do this' tips!
Thanks in advance!
