Cross-Cultural Communication

Wednesday, August 19th, 2026

This course is a practical introduction to cross-cultural communication. It is designed for learners at a advanced level who want to move from scattered knowledge to a clear, usable understanding they can apply straight away.

Across 5 lessons you will work through the core ideas step by step, with short exercises after each section so you can check your understanding as you go rather than at the very end.

What you’ll cover:

• Culture as an Invisible Filter
• Direct and Indirect Communication
• Time, Hierarchy and Context
• Working on Global Teams
• Avoiding Costly Misreads

By the end you should be comfortable enough with cross-cultural communication to keep learning on your own, and to apply what you have covered in a real language context. No prior specialist background is assumed beyond basic familiarity with the subject area.
