Good morning, all:
In my experience there are Oral (only) Cultures and Oral (preferred)
Cultures, the latter being more people-oriented (versus task-oriented) on
the Kluckhohn-Strodtbeck Scale, even when very "literate" and with
postgraduate degrees. With both I make adjustments such as those mentioned
in previous posts in the OS procedure.

Harrison,
yes I also thought so. Only that we have to undo the modification.
And that is also learning. And that is what I try to do.
I call it Oral Culture, because this is a positive definition by the
specific way of communicating and not deficit orientated as
non-literate. This helps me to remind/not forget that the strength of
these people lies in memory and world construction by story-telling
and thats what I have to build on, if I try to go with the flow.
Thanks for the report info
Bernd
