Communication and Culture

*Do you find yourself communicating differently with people from different groups and cultures? If yes, explain. 

To be perfetly honest, yes I do indeed communicate differently with people from different groups and cultures. This is mainly to avoid any miscommunication caused by a potential language barrier.The more familiar I am with someone's group or culture, the more confident I am in communicating with them.

*Based on what you have learned this week, share at least three strategies you could use to help you communicate more effectively with the people or groups you have identified:
(1) Do not start the conversation with any biases or preconceived notions about the person

(2) Be mindful of your body language and tune into theirs as well

(3) Listen intently to the other person and make eye contact
