Theme: Behaving in intercultural settings.

The last component of intercultural

communication competence is the behaving

which refers to the appreciation and acceptance

to the diversity of the cultures and is able to

communicate with culturally different others in an

unexpected, interested and open

The definition of behave means to act in a certain manner

to control yourself so your actions are acceptable and

considered appropriate by society. An example of behave

is when you do what you are told at school, using your

indoor voice and following all directions.

There are following types of behaving in itercultural settings.

–After every intercultural communication situation, carefully reflect about its

–After every intercultural communication situation, carefully reflect about its

outcomes Perhaps you can’t afford to do this when you were dealing with people

from your own country, but in intercultural communication situations you simply

have to if you want to gain any significant learnings from them.

Here, you can ask yourself questions like the following: What behaviors did the other side use that confused me/that I didn’t understand? How did the other side perceive my behavior?

Here, you can ask yourself questions like the following:

What behaviors did the other side use that confused me/that I didn’t understand?

How did the other side perceive my behavior?

Have I achieved the outcomes I was looking for?

What were the reasons

for my success/failure?

In what ways do the other person’s behaviors/beliefs different from my own?

Always try to understand the other side’s motivations behind every behavior

Keep in mind that one of the primary reasons why intercultural communication

situations fail is because the two sides have completely different

belief- and value systems.

One of the most difficult aspects of intercultural communication is therefore to understand the beliefs which are underlying the other side’s behavior. Consequently, during any intercultural communication encounter you should ask yourself questions like these: What are the beliefs and motivations underlying his or her behavior? In what way does his or her perspective on this issue differ from my own?

Question your beliefs and assumptions on a regular basis

Being grounded in one’s core beliefs is one very important aspect of having a solid sense of self.

Nonetheless, beliefs are just that: beliefs.

Almost all assumptions we are making about the world are subjective and a result of the

cultural conditioning that we have received by living in a particular environment.

In other words, while being confronted with people from other cultural backgrounds, by

definition we will constantly face situations where our own beliefs differ significantly

from those of the other side.

Therefore, it is very important to see every encounter with somebody from another

culture as a learning opportunity. As an opportunity that can help us to recognize wrong

ideas we held about the world and thus refine our own worldview.
