Show Notes

 

Culture and language can create barriers to understanding, to team cohesion, and to organizational culture.

Lauren Supraner is founder and president of CAL Learning, a New York-based intercultural communication training, coaching and consulting company, who works with global professionals to help them communicate clearly and effectively across cultures.

In this episode, we explore how culture and language combine as obstacles to communication, and how both native English speakers and non-native English speakers can adapt their communication style to be understood and to understand more effectively.
