Literature on face-to-face intercultural business communication (IBC) suggests that language, culture, business culture, and interpersonal context variables lead to misunderstandings, but these predictors have not been studied with regard to e-mail communication. This exploratory study identifies variables that cause e-mail miscommunication, reduce work accomplishment, and harm business relationships.

We offer a multi-dimensional model for further research.
