This case study is a perfect example on how cultural differences and diversity can lead to a crisis situation for even the greatest brands. Understanding the working of non-verbal communication and cultural sensitivity is important to develop the needed and complex advertising strategies that resonate with diverse audience. The relevance of this research is not only significant in this specific case study, but overall in cultural dynamics, and corporate crisis management.
