As the managing director of New Dimension Group, Nicholas Janitsary provides business consulting services, security equipment, and aviation apparatus to clients working in Asia and the Middle East. Nicholas Janitsary also works to help clients navigate local business cultures and strives to foster cross-cultural understanding. According to an article on the Entrepreneurs’ Organization website by cultural science authority Gayle Cotton, cross-cultural communications play an integral role in the global business marketplace. Cotton states that there a number of ways to proactively plan for multicultural business interactions, and she asserts that awareness is an essential first step. While building awareness, Cotton suggests examining how people from other cultures communicate across different channels, in person and via email, to gain insight into formality levels and values. She also recommends maintaining an understanding of a region’s history, economy, and geography, which can help reflect business acumen and cultural sensitivity. Along with cultural awareness, Cotton states that professionals should be prepared to embrace the cultural practices of business partners from other countries. For example, she notes that former U.S. President George W. Bush showed respect and trust when he held hands with Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah during a visit to America.

Differences between American and Asian Business Cultures

Having conducted business in Asia for more than 15 years, Dr. Nicholas Janitsary has established a solid reputation for his ability to understand and bridge the gap between the business cultures of Asia, the Middle East, and North America. Since 2000, Dr. Nicholas Janitsary has served as the founder and managing director of New Dimension Group, based in Delhi, Dubai, and Singapore. There are a few differences between the business cultures of the United States and Asia, including the following: Body language – In the United States, it is customary to nod up and down when agreeing with someone, while in India, Nepal, and a few other countries, people move their heads from side to side when in agreement.  Stronger relationships – When conducting business in a country such as China, the acceptable practice is to first build strong relationships with your business counterparts before closing or finalizing any business transactions. Modes of communication – While Americans have a reputation for being direct and outspoken, businesspersons from some Asian cultures can be more reserved. This can prove challenging for Americans, as it may take several meetings to acquire the information or desired outcome they seek.

The Difference Between Criminology and Criminal Justice

Since 2000, Nicholas Janitsary has served as founder and managing director for business consultancy New Dimension Group. Among his firm’s clients are a number of large retailers, restaurants, and entertainment companies. Nicholas Janitsary completed his university education with a doctorate in criminology. As one might surmise, criminology refers to the study of crime, criminals, and all of the major psychological and behavioral theories associated with crime. That does not, however, give a very clear idea of the differences between the fields of criminology and criminal justice. The primary difference between the two disciplines, both professionally and in an academic capacity, is that criminologists take a sociological approach to crime, viewing it as a cultural issue. Practitioners of criminal justice, on the other hand, take a more concrete approach, studying and enacting countermeasures against crime within an established legal system. While the professions overlap, criminologists generally operate in more academic settings, while criminal justice professionals work in the field.

Nicholas Janitsary on Middle Eastern Business Etiquette

Nicholas Janitsary has more than a decade of experience helping international companies do business in the Middle East. Although the region presents ample opportunities for businesspeople from the U.S., its different social norms and professional rhythms can present challenges. To help, Janitsary has prepared these tips on Middle Eastern business etiquette. Friendships and personal contacts are critical to achieving business success. Few in the Middle East draw an absolute line between business and personal life, so it is important to express interest in a potential partner’s family and hobbies. Relationships are built during long conversations over coffee or tea and should not be rushed. In most Middle Eastern cultures, the left hand is considered to be unclean in a professional context. Even if you are left-handed, it is critical to use your right hand for handshakes and other interpersonal contact. Muslim culture values honor highly, and spoken agreements are treated very seriously. Written contracts remain an important tool for articulating formal agreements, but you will likely be held to everything you say, even casually. It is important to choose words carefully and to mention only what you are sure you can deliver.

The Changing Role of Special Ops By Nicholas Janitsary

Most people picture special operations forces as small, elite groups performing secret raids behind enemy lines. But in recent years, the role of special ops has seen a shift from surgical strikes and intelligence gathering to training local soldiers and rebuilding nations. In Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere around the world, special ops teams have taken on the role of training local forces to identify and overcome insurgents. Nearly 10,000 special operations soldiers will be deployed to Afghanistan in 2013, tasked with the role of ensuring that the Afghan central government and its forces can continue to combat insurgents after the withdrawal of the American armed forces. To complete this role, new weapons have been added to the arsenals of special operations teams: instructional skills, language training, and an understanding of local culture and religion. This trend is likely to continue well into the future. Nicholas Janitsary is a security expert and Managing Director of New Dimension Group.

Nicholas Janitsary: Private Jet Aircraft Sales Outlook for Asia

A Singapore-based aviation consultant, Nicholas Janitsary leads New Dimension Group as Managing Director. With a background in criminology, he offers extensive knowledge of security, business, and aviation matters. His subsidiary, New Dimension Aviation, works with Asian clients on private jet charters, sales, and leases. Currently contributing 5 percent to the global private aircraft market, Asia remains poised to drive the industry’s expansion in the next 10 years, according to experts. They predict $40 billion worth of sales within the following decade. In contrast to Europe, the Asian economies have not experienced comparable levels of shock. Furthermore, Asian buyers generally choose new aircraft over used ones. Some of the factors that have caused Asia to lag behind other private aircraft markets include China’s ban on private aircraft ownership, which existed until 2003. In addition, other nations’ airports and air infrastructure have not developed as much as that of the United States. This means that those nations need to continue to consider solutions for tariffs and build airports that can accommodate smaller aircraft.

Nicholas Janitsary Discusses the History of INTERPOL

The world's largest law enforcement organization, INTERPOL consists of nearly 200 member countries. Operating under the slogan “connecting police for a safer world,” INTERPOL is headquartered in Lyon, France, and possesses seven regional branches across the globe.

The origins of INTERPOL can be traced back to 1914 and the First International Criminal Police Congress. During this meeting police officers, lawyers, and magistrates representing 14 countries discussed arrest procedures, crime solving techniques, extradition matters, and other topics. Less than a decade later, Dr. Johannes Schober created the International Criminal Police Commission (ICPC) in Vienna. Over the next several years, countries established National Central Bureaus, which are essential to the modern incarnation of this law enforcement group. The Nazi takeover of Austria during World War II put a temporary end to ICPC. Following the war, representatives from Belgium played a crucial role in rebuilding the organization. In 1946, it officially adopted the name INTERPOL. About the Author: A security expert, Nicholas Janitsary is the Managing Director and founder of New Dimension Group, a consultancy with branches in three different countries. A regular panelist at industry events, Janitsary has spoken in front of the INTERPOL General Assembly.
