Communication – Trust – Teamwork

['Communication Trust Teamwork\nWhy do international teams sometimes misunderstand each other?\n\nWorking with international colleagues can surface subtle but significant differences in how time is managed, how directly people communicate, or how decisions get made. These differences aren\'t random; they follow recognizable cultural patterns that, once understood, become manageable rather than confusing.\n\nThis one-hour online course introduces the fundamentals of intercultural communication in professional settings. Participants explore how cultural dimensions such as attitudes toward hierarchy, time orientation, and communication style shape everyday collaboration, and why misunderstandings often stem from differing expectations rather than personal intent.\n\nWhat You\'ll Learn\nBy the end of this course, participants will be able to:\n\nRecognize common sources of intercultural misunderstanding in team settings, such as differing norms around time, directness, and feedback\nExplain how core cultural dimensions (e.g., communication style, hierarchy, time orientation) influence workplace interactions\nApply practical strategies for adapting communication approaches when working with international colleagues\nReflect on their own cultural assumptions and how these shape collaboration\n\nFormat and Approach\nThe course combines short input phases with practical examples and interactive discussion, following a "Reflection in Action" approach: participants connect cultural concepts directly to real workplace situations.\n\nWho This Course Is For\nThis course is designed for employees who regularly collaborate with international colleagues, teams, or clients no prior knowledge of intercultural communication theory required (EQF Level 12).\n\nDate and Time\n09.
