GSM 572 Communicating Across Cultures
Globalization is one of the major forces shaping our world and organizations are no exception. If we look at the spread of information, ideas, capital, media, and cultural artifacts - or for that matter, people - we can see the boundaries and borders that have historically separated one country or one group from another are becoming more and more permeable. "Communicating across Cultures" is designed to help you meet the challenges of living and working in a world in which, increasingly, you will be asked to interact with people who may not be like you in fundamental ways. The overarching goals are to help you become more sensitive to intercultural communication differences, and to provide you with the knowledge and skills that will help you interact successfully with people from cultures other than your own.
