LinkedIn Learning Course

Unlocking Authentic Communication in a Culturally Diverse Workplace

-49 minutes

What does it take to be a great communicator, particularly in a global and culturally-diverse modern workplace? The answer is, largely, authenticity. In this course, Jonathan Wilson teaches key principles of authentic communication, real-world tips for practicing authentic communication, and how to develop cultural awareness so you can build relationships, support colleagues from underrepresented groups, and be a more effective professional. Jonathan explores what it means to be authentic in a way that celebrates who you are, resonates with others, highlights the importance of cultural differences, and energizes those around you. 

 

LinkedIn JEDI Collection Learning Course

Multinational Communication in the Workplace

Successful business communication often hinges on one's understanding of nuance. But in international workplaces, linguistic nuances can easily be lost in translation, making interactions less efficient (and in some cases, less positive). In this course, instructor Luna Checchini shares tips that can help native and nonnative English speakers alike address the subtle cultural and linguistic challenges that often crop up in international workplaces. Learn how to effectively facilitate multinational meetings, as well as how English speakers can make their phrasing easier for nonnative speakers to understand. Plus, Luna shares tips that can help nonnative speakers communicate effectively in English, including how to write and read business emails and manage phone conversations.
