Description

Let's talk about Cultural Intelligence and explore how language is part of a bigger picture when it comes to interacting with people from a different background. Yes, it's important to communicate well when speaking your own language or the language of others. However, effective communication isn't about language skills alone. Cultural aspects also come into play when expressing yourself and understanding the people you are talking to.
To introduce this fascinating topic, we'll read an article titled "Brazilian Emotional Intelligence: Affection, Language and the Intricacies of Belonging," written by Adrienne Sweetwater and Mariana Barros, partners at a company called Differänce, which offers intercultural consulting services to companies and expatriates who must not only cross geographical borders, but bridge gaps between different cultures as well.
