How terrible are the communication difficulties caused by cultural gaps?

Speaking of no culture is really terrible, my cousin can't even write his own name, into the factory work interview are others to help him fill out the form, a few days ago he asked me to help him send money home, he can't read a word will not send, I am more than 80 kilometers away from his work address, he said you must come to help me send, the pocket has been put in a few months of salary, can not fit, has no one to help him send, for the sake of the cousin, and then I went over to help him send the money home, he said that you will come every three months to help me send, I really don't have a place to put it, I'm speechless.

The impact is huge. The purpose of communication is to achieve a quick understanding of each other through communication, if there are cultural differences between the two sides, then there will be differences in the corresponding expression, and there will be differences in the way of understanding, which will inevitably fail to achieve the purpose of communication, on the contrary, may turn against each other. For example, a thumbs up, affirmative gestures in some places and insulting gestures in other places is definitely going to be problematic.

People who are not at the same level of education will not adapt and will have a sense of distance. Will make jokes and make embarrassment. When I was a child, I remember my brother telling my mother to eat "minibus beef noodles".

Later, I found out that it was "Little Fat Girl Instant Noodles". This should be regarded as the most shallow manifestation of no culture, not literate. Furthermore, the difference in thinking and worldview will really widen the distance between people invisibly, and you can't see it, but you can feel it.

For uneducated people, there will indeed be a lot of jokes and there will be certain obstacles in life and work, but they are nothing more than a little outdated in their thinking, a little pedantic in their concepts, and a little barbaric in their behavior, but their temperament and movement are easy to be deduced, so when you meet them, it only takes a short time to understand their psychology and minefields, and it is relatively easy to interact with them, and it is not difficult to educate them or routines.

If you are not educated, there are several main points: socializing, when others are chatting, if you are not educated, it is difficult to participate. With children, if you are not educated, you cannot be a good example in front of your children.

Looking for a job, many jobs now have academic requirements, and if you don't have a culture, it's hard to find a suitable job.

Culture is knowledge, insight, travel thousands of miles Reading thousands of books is to enrich knowledge and knowledge, in a real society, without knowledge and knowledge is passive, everywhere is restricted! For example, the first time you eat okra, you don't know what is like a sharp pepper that is not spicy.

There are fewer topics on both sides, or even no, and even if you bring up a topic, you will immediately be unpopular, replaced by some words of um, ah, yes, or go straight back to you, I'm not interested in that!

When it comes to cultural people, our first impression is that of people who have read books and gone to school. Those who have not read books, who are illiterate and unreasonable, belong to uneducated people. But in fact, to say that a person is literate refers not only to his knowledge, but also to a person's conduct.

The measures in the face of cultural differences are as follows:

1. Recognize the differences in the cultural context.

The first step in cross-cultural communication is to recognize the differences between cultures and cultures, and cross-cultural communication begins with understanding other cultures.

2. Respect differences in cultural contexts.

Once you realize that differences in cultural context affect intercultural communication, all you have to do is respect those differences. When you encounter a different style of communication, learn to accept differences and learn to actively listen to others.

3. Differences in reconciliation and cultural context.

It's not enough to recognize and respect differences, you also need to learn how to reconcile them. Understanding and empathy can help reconcile differences, and you need to learn to use them to improve the efficiency of communication between colleagues and drive productivity.

Ways to facilitate communication between different cultural contexts

Research shows that about 55% of the content in communication is not delivered by words. Body language scripts convey a very subtle message that you can understand each other's meaning based on them, and the team members in the meeting who are in a different location can see each other's body language. Therefore, when organizing remote meetings, I usually use the form of ** meetings.

2. Make sure every member has the opportunity to share their ideas.

Although I like to have ** meetings, I don't always succeed. If meetings aren't used by your team and may take some time to get used to, you'll want to actively encourage people to participate, starting with audio conferencing.

<> faced with cultural differences, there are several ways we can deal with them:

Respect differences: People in different cultural backgrounds have different values, beliefs, customs, and behaviors. We should respect these differences, not judge the behavior of others easily, and we should not judge others with our own values.

Communication: Communication is very important when we are faced with cultural differences. We should try to know and understand people from different cultural backgrounds, and promote mutual understanding and understanding through communication and learning from each other.

Learning Transformation: In the face of cultural differences, we can better adapt and understand through learning and transformation. We can better understand and respect people from different cultural backgrounds by learning the values, beliefs, customs, and behaviors of other source cultures.

InclusivenessWhen we are confronted with cultural differences, we should be tolerant and accepting of different perspectives and cultural divergence. We should try to understand and accept people from different cultural backgrounds, and respect their differences.

Adjust yourself: When we are confronted with cultural differences, we may feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable. However, we should try to adjust ourselves to different cultural environments.

Through learning, communication and practice, we can better adapt and understand people from different cultural backgrounds.

In short, in the face of cultural differences, we should respect, tolerate, accept and adjust ourselves. Through communication, learning and transfer, learning about the values, beliefs, customs, and behaviors of other cultures, as well as being inclusive and accepting of different perspectives and cultural backgrounds, we can better adapt and understand people from different cultural backgrounds.

1. In people-to-people exchanges, we should have a correct attitude towards cultural diversity: first of all, we must identify with our own national culture, but also respect the culture of other nations, recognize the diversity of world cultures, respect the cultures of different nations, and must follow the principle that all ethnic cultures are equal.

2. In cultural exchanges, we should respect differences, understand individuality, live in harmony, and jointly promote the prosperity of world culture. All countries should, in accordance with the actual conditions of their own countries and nations and in light of the needs of their own development, selectively borrow and absorb foreign cultures, oppose copying foreign cultures, and oppose the total negation of foreign cultures and "closed-mindedness".

3. The treatment of cultural differences should not be exclusion, but should be communication, not only to respect the value of their own national culture, but also to respect the value of other national cultures, and advocate equal exchanges and mutual learning.

4. The destruction of Chinese literature has made a great contribution to the development of human civilization. Inheriting the excellent traditional Chinese culture and carrying forward the spirit of the Chinese nation is our unshirkable historical responsibility.

5. While going to the world, we must not lose ourselves, we must not lose our uniqueness, but cherish our spiritual home. As for foreign cultures, we should not copy and copy, but should take the essence of foreign culture and discard its dross.

First of all, cross-cultural communication should consider language differences, cultural differences, social background differences, etc., and at the same time, the difference in people's understanding of the same thing is also a problem, the specific analysis is as follows, for reference only!

1. Language barrier.

Due to the fact that each country and region has formed its own unique language cognition in the process of long-term historical development, it is inevitable to encounter various embarrassing problems when communicating between different cultures.

2. Non-verbal barriers.

Among the non-verbal disorders, Dr. Albert Merabin's classic research found that non-verbal facial expressions, gestures, body postures, etc. accounted for 55%, and there are three main reasons for cross-cultural communication

Conflict of ideas, because of the different consciousnesses, external and intrinsic motivational orientations, and the different moral values of different cultures, will produce fierce collisions and sometimes frictions in the communication and interaction between different members;

Institutional conflicts, each country and group or organization has its own rules and regulations to bind the members of the group, these systems will be deeply imprinted in the minds of the members, and their behavior is governed by the system, so it will be difficult for people with different cultural backgrounds to integrate into each other;

Conflict of behavior, everyone lives and grows up in a different environment, and has different education, so the way and method of dealing with people will be different, because everyone is an independent individual, and will come into contact with different people in their interactions, we can see from our own side, you get along well with this person does not necessarily mean that you can get along well with another person, and even have conflicts, people with different cultural backgrounds are more likely to be difficult to get along.

Finally, explain what cross-cultural communication is as follows:

Intercultural communication usually refers to the act of communication that occurs between people of different cultural backgrounds across the globe. It is manifested as a cultural phenomenon in which people of different cultures, through certain ways and methods, such as business, marriage, dispatch, study, mission, etc., collide and contact each other in a certain time and space, learn from each other, integrate with each other, and thus continue to develop.

Life: The purpose of communication is to achieve a quick understanding of each other through communication, if there are cultural differences between the two sides, then there will be differences in the corresponding expression, and there will be differences in the way of understanding.

In terms of business communication: Qiaoyan will affect the concept of business time, business space, business values and ethics, which will affect the communication barriers.
