•High contexts can be difficult to enter if you are an outsider (because you aren’t apart of the group you don’t know group slang, jokes, hierarchy, back stories etc. and so you can't instantly create close relationships).
•Low contexts are relatively easy to enter if you are an outsider (because the environment contains much of the information you need to participate, and because can you form relationships quickly, and because the important thing is accomplishing a task rather than feeling your way into a relationship).
