In Cracking the Code of International Communication you will learn:
- The Code: There are five skills that are important for succeeding with international communication: Language skills, intercultural skills, communication skills, personal skills and small talk.
- How small talk, the fifth skill, is a super tool in developing intercultural fluency. It’s an essential part of all the other skills. In many ways, it’s the key to the code.
- How to find the right combination of the five skill areas for you to develop.
- That fluency – a combination of flow and focus – is vital when applying the code in practice in your professional and personal life.
- The ‘one degree’ principle: It’s enough to make a small change, in the right direction, in order to achieve a big difference over time for you and your organisation. You can become more interculturally fluent!
