Cross-Cultural Communication

How to communicate clearly and respectfully across cultures at work: recognising differences in feedback style, hierarchy, time and context, running inclusive multinational meetings, and building shared team norms. For professionals in international and multinational workplaces — common in energy and industrial organisations — and for self-directed learners working with colleagues from other cultures.

Qué aprenderá

  • Explain the main dimensions on which workplace cultures tend to differ — feedback directness, attitudes to hierarchy and time, and high- versus low-context communication
  • Interpret unfamiliar behaviour generously, checking intent before judging a colleague's words or silence
  • Adapt your own language for international colleagues by avoiding idioms, sarcasm and culture-bound references
  • Plan and run meetings that work across cultures and time zones, so every participant can genuinely contribute
  • Describe the practical realities of multinational crews and how to keep communication safe and clear within them
  • Facilitate a team in agreeing explicit shared norms instead of leaving each culture's defaults to collide
