Be aware of intercultural communication

Thursday February 25 

By Julio Rodriguez

Special to CSMS Magazine

If you see someone with a clenched fist and a grim expression, you do not need words to tell you that this person is not happy. If you hear someone’s voice quaver and see his or her hands tremble, you may infer that the person is fearful or anxious, despite what he or she might say. These kinds of gestures are easy to be spotted, for they are universal. However, there are subtle gestures or distinct forms of behavior that are hard if not impossible to spot in the absence of cross-cultural awareness. Sometimes, if misunderstood or misinterpreted, it can lead to serious social discomforts or even social clashes.
