Intercultural Relationship
Althen, G., & Bennett, J. (2011)Because of the inherent differences
between the message sender/encoder and the message
receiver/decoder, the risk of misunderstanding is particularly high
in intercultural situations
Better communication with various cultures:
Understand your own culture and communication variables: social
role/symbolism/thought patterns etc
Learn the communication rules for the other culture by reflecting
on its approach to nonverbal and other aspects of
communication. Be sensitive to verbal and nonverbal language
codes, and use language appropriate for the culture
Avoid error interpretation that rely on the basis of your own social
and cultural values.
lookout for cues that suggest you should change your own
communication style or your interpretation.
