Summary
The main purpose of the study is to analyze the level of intercultural competences of Bulgarian managers and employees when dealing with foreigners. The communication process between them is examined, their knowledge about the different cultures is considered, and the main obstacles and barriers to the Bulgarian business people in the process of intercultural communication are identified through a survey of companies. The survey tasks involve building a theoretical framework for intercultural communication, identifying the importance of culture and its dimensions for the realization of a successful business in a multicultural environment and defining the main obstacles and barriers that Bulgarian managers and employees are faced with in the process of their work with representatives of foreign cultures. The authors argue that intercultural competence contributes to achieving synergism in the implementation of business relations between Bulgarian and foreign companies.
