Promoting diversity and inclusion in a workplace cannot be done fully without understanding and applying the tools of cross-cultural communication. In the fifth episode of Is Everybody In The Room?, we explore the topic of Cross Cultural Communication. Your team-mates from different cultures or diverse backgrounds might have different verbal and non-verbal ways of communicating. Active listening, understanding non-verbal communication, and doing the work to learn about the ways people from different cultures communicate and their lived experiences forms the basis for discussion between our three panelists Chisom Udeze, Kevin Reeder, and William Kweku Paintsil, moderated by Hyacinth Walters-Olsen. They also dig deeper into the challenges of cross-cultural communication and provide you with the skills to ensure that miscommunication no longer goes unaddressed.
