Getting Your Voice to Shake: A Practical Guide to Intercultural Communication

$9.97

Have you ever wondered why some people just can’t seem to be on time? Or maybe you’re the one who is always being teased for being late, and you’ve wondered, “What’s the big deal about time, anyway?”
It may not be that your clock is messed up…in fact, there’s a good chance the source of conflict can be traced to culture, not a timepiece. Our culture affects much of who we are, influencing our relationships with other people, our perception of time, and even the way we perceive authority.
If you’ve ever tried to communicate with someone from another culture and have been frustrated by the lack of connection (even if you are both fluent in the same language!), Getting Your Voice to Shake will be an eye-opening resource that will introduce you to ways to bridge – and, more importantly, to understand – the culture gap and become a much more effective communicator for today’s global society.
