CROSS-CULTURAL COMPETENCY
I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows to be closed.
I want all the cultures of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any.

THE MIND SETS NEEDED FOR STUDYING CROSS - CULTURAL SKILLS
• Don’t expect mathematical accuracy. In the study of cultures 1+2 = 5. Understanding cultures is an art, not an exact science.
• Accept ambiguity, inconsistency, and mystery.• Seek understanding, not proof of right or wrong,
and not judgment of good or bad.• The goal of learning cross cultural skills is to
facilitate co-existence and collaboration.• Have fun. Enjoy the journey. Laugh while learning.

PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNICATING ACROSS CULTURES
All communications are culture-based.
Communication is verbal and non-verbal.
You communicate all the time.
The individual’s own style may differ from the culture’s.
