    Perception and Inter-Cultural Communication

    ¡°The moon is a rocky physical sphere that orbits the Earth; yet when looking at this object, many Americans often see a man in the moon, many Native Americans perceive a rabbit, Chinese claim a lady is fleeing her husband, and Samoans report a woman weaving¡±(Samovar 56). For Americans, a ¡°V¡± sign made with two fingers usually represents victory. Australians equate this gesture with a rude American gesture usually made with the middle finger. Most Asians respond negatively to white flowers because white is associated with death. For Peruvians, Iranians, and Mexicans, yellow flowers often invoke the same reaction. In these three examples, the external objects (moons, hands, flowers) were the same, yet the responses are different. The reason is perception. Perception is the means by which we make sense of our physical and social world. That is to say, it is the process by which we become aware of objects, events, and especially people and their behavior through our various senses: sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing. In this process, we meditate our information about and knowledge of our external physical and social world and thus form our own images of that world. Perception is about the way in which we think about the outside world and can therefore decide the way in which we behave and communicate with other people. In this sense, we can say that perception plays a big role in the process of communication. It not only decides our behavior, but also keeps us doing in that way. Therefore, in order to be an effective communicator, one first has to have a better understanding of perception.…

    I would like to discuss, reflect on and analyse Hofstede’s cultural patterns. Based on my personal experiences and opinions I believe Hofstede has to some extent attempted to successfully classify different nations and cultures into their predominant dimensions, however it is not without its flaw. Of the four dimensions Hofstede has identified, I will explain two.…

    My poster illustrate different islands in a blue sky background, each island represent one of our team member. The basement of the island is the picture of different city, it means we come from different country and we have different background. We looks similar, but totally different. We flying in the sky, we look forward our future can be better. The rocket is our team goal; we wish our team could have the power to launch a rocket.

    Hospitality--An Essential Trait

    “If I have found favor in your eyes, my lord, do not pass your servant by. Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree. Let me get you something to eat, so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant.” When two angels passed the door of Abraham’s tent, he immediately pleaded the men to stay at his place. He also brought water to wash the men’s feet and ordered the servant to prepare a scrumptious meal. Thus, Abraham entertained angels unawares; at that moment, he practiced hospitality. Dictionary.com defines “hospitality” as “the friendly reception and treatment of guests or strangers.” In real life, hospitality means showing love towards the guest.…

    Intercultural Communications

    International and Intercultural Communications have been of great interest to the Hofstede Centre for many years. In fact Geert Hofstede’s dimensions of culture have been the most widely disseminated of all theories. Hofstede’s five cultural dimensions are, “1) Power Distance, 2) Individualism or Collectivism, 3) Masculinity-Femininity, 4) Uncertainty Avoidance, and 5) Short or Long Term Orientation.” (Donald Baack, 2012, Chapter 2.4). “Professor Geert Hofstede conducted one of the most comprehensive studies of how values in the workplace are influenced by culture. He analyzed a large database of employee value scores collected within IBM between 1967 and 1973. The data covered more than 70 countries, from which Hofstede first used the 40 countries with the largest groups of respondents and afterwards extended the analysis to 50 countries and 3 regions.” (The Hofstede Center, n.d.). In the next few pages I will compare the similarities and differences in scores between the countries of Croatia and Slovenia in relation to Hofstede’s five cultural dimensions as well as provide a scenario involving two organizations, one located in each country and their business practices relating to the different cultural perspectives.…
