Question

Perhaps the most important consequence of a monochronic time orientation is that:________.

Answer 1

Answer:

- Denies the natural context and progression of human communication

Explanation:

Monochronic time orientation is associated with the cultures who rigidly follow the time frame and organize their tasks according to the time. People of such cultures believe in time as linear and stable thing and thus, follow a more concentrated and task-oriented approach that proposes focusing one task at a time contrary to the 'polychronic cultures' who have faith in multi-tasking at the same time.

As per the question, the most important consequence or effect of 'monochronic time orientated cultures' is that they neglect the natural background as they are highly task-oriented and stick to the pre-planned plans which is not natural. They also deny progression of communication due to rigidity towards time frame and giving low reference to communication.
