Download or read book The Quintessence of Intercultural Business Communication written by Melanie Moll and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful business communication is more than simply speaking your client’s language. At the heart of all effective communication lies a fundamental understanding of human behavior. The natural result of globalization is a level of behaviors that we all share and expect. However, underneath this level are many other influencing factors. We tend to view the situation around us according to our own expectations which are often shaped by our cultural backgrounds. What happens, though, when our cultures are so different that the expectations collide? This book combines theory and practice in a way that helps you as a busy intercultural manager understand what others are communicating to you and those around you. We take apart real examples of intercultural business interaction and show you how deeply embedded cultural norms are found within a simple conversation. Then we offer you important tools and principles that you can use to improve your own intercultural business communication. After reading this book, you should have a good understanding of the basic culture types, and be able to identify most cultures based on the principles described here. Additionally, you will know which social issues, attitudes, and values appear even in the most rational business negotiation. Most importantly, your cultural awareness will help you build successful and lasting relationships with your clients across regional and global boundaries.

Intercultural Communication for Business is direct, simple, and compact. Dr. Elizabeth Tuleja of the Mendoza College of Business examines what it means to communicate in a diverse workplace - whether at home or abroad. This book looks both broadly and specifically at issues and opportunities that are increasingly important as the business world shrinks and grows more interdependent. As time zones blur and fewer restrictions are imposed on the global movement of capital, raw materials, finished goods, and human labor, people will cling fiercely to the ways in which they were enculturated in their early years of development and socialization. In order to become more effective in daily interactions at work, home or abroad, it is essential that people develop a keen awareness and understanding of the differences that exist regarding human values, beliefs, attitudes and behaviors. In today's global workplace, we must be able to embrace such differences and acknowledge them as opportunities for learning and enrichment rather than forces for confusion and trouble.

Download or read book Intercultural Communication written by James W. Neuliep and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 2006 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This introduction to intercultural communication provides students with a clear model for examining communication within cultural, micro-cultural, environmental, socio-relational, and perceptual contexts. The author depicts his theory as a series of circles representing the idea that communication is defined by the interdependence of cultural contexts. His presentation of contexts begins with the outermost cultural circle of the model and moves inward toward the most specific traits of communication--verbal and non-verbal messages. Each chapter focuses on one context and the combination of factors included within that context--setting, situation, and circumstances. The text also highlights influences such as values, ethnicity, physical geography, and attitudes and then examines certain means of interaction, including body language, eye contact, and the exchange of words. Additional topics covered include the stages of relationships, cross-cultural management, intercultural conflict, and culture shock. Features & Benefits: - Sample cross-cultural dialogues demonstrate for students how the various concepts discussed manifest themselves in human interaction; - Self-report instruments help students understand themselves and assess their performance and skill development as they learn the important concepts of intercultural communication; - Every chapter contains a summary, glossary of terms, and an extensive reference list. Photos, charts, and graphs help make the material more accessible and realistic to students; - A content-rich Website offers resources for instructors and students, including PowerPoint slides to enhance class presentations.

Download or read book Intercultural Communication written by Tracy Novinger and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successfully communicating with people from another culture requires learning more than just their language. While fumbling a word or phrase may cause embarrassment, breaking the unspoken cultural rules that govern personal interactions can spell disaster for businesspeople, travelers, and indeed anyone who communicates across cultural boundaries. To help you avoid such damaging gaffes, Tracy Novinger has compiled this authoritative, practical guide for deciphering and following "the rules" that govern cultures, demonstrating how these rules apply to the communication issues that exist between the United States and Mexico. Novinger begins by explaining how a major proportion of communication within a culture occurs nonverbally through behavior and manners, shared attitudes, common expectations, and so on. Then, using real-life examples and anecdotes, she pinpoints the commonly occurring obstacles to communication that can arise when cultures differ in their communication techniques. She shows how these obstacles come into play in contacts between the U.S. and Mexico and demonstrates that mastering the unspoken rules of Mexican culture is a key to cementing business and social relationships. Novinger concludes with nine effective, reliable principles for successfully communicating across cultures.
