What is Intercultural Communication?

Intercultural communication is the way in which we talk and communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds. Our values, cultural and communication styles may differ, and in the workplace, intercultural communication skills are about finding ways to collaborate and communicate well, reducing misunderstandings, while also promoting inclusivity.

Please join Melody Wright, Learning & Development Manager, for this online session aimed at bettering our skills in communicating with everyone in our campus community.
