Student name: Vu Phan Lam Anh Student number: s3818473 Assignment 1b: Connection journal 2 Human life will be meaningless without behavioral communication. In this era of internationalization, communication skills are becoming more and more important both in life and at work especially interpersonal skills and managing intercultural conflicts. Every organization, individual and country has different cultural contexts, so it is important to work effectively in a multicultural environment and manage conflicts. An example of a cultural difference between the East and the West is communication style. Differences in direct and non- direct communication between cultures can have serious consequences in the relationships between members, when projects run into difficulties. A group of marketing members of the business consists of employees from the US, Japan and Vietnam. When facing a difficult problem, Americans may give a straightforward personal opinion, making eye contact when speaking or participating in a debate to show positivity, but this is considered vulgar or somewhat rude to the Japanese. According to Chin and Sanchez (2007), lack of experience in an intercultural working environment can lead to miscommunication, misunderstanding, and misinterpretation (as cited from Trujillo- Dalbey, 2002). Through the course on cultural conflict management, I myself have gained an understanding of cultural differences between countries, from which to have a more objective perception to listening to others, raise my point of view appropriately and solve raised problems effectively in the environment of learning and working with foreigners. In addition, interpersonal skills are considered as one of the important skills in life and work, including communication skills, teamwork skills, self-management skills, problem solving skills and leadership skills. This is a group of skills that bring individuals together. Through the documentation and discussion of the course, I personally find that businesses are increasingly demanding of the candidates, requiring them to have multiple -task skills, which makes people more and more demanding. pressure, thereby reducing communication efficiency as well as quality of life. Each person has a different approach and problem solving, which is why there are people who even have to do a lot of work, they can still effectively organize the work, while some feel overwhelming pressure with only one thing. In my opinion, when we have self-
management skills, know how to accept everything that happens as it should be, we can completely experience and handle urgent tasks first, so that the work is effective and ourselves are not too stress.
