People in different parts of the world differ profoundly in their cultural patterns, ideologies, language and means of communication.

Today’s world has grown so small that we all depend on each other to form a network. What happens in one part of the world affects other places instantaneously. It is to the advantage of all who share the planet to improve their interpersonal and intercultural communication abilities and skills.

When different backgrounds come together, 'miscommunication' and conflict is common. It is crucial in intercultural communication to have sufficient knowledge about different ways of human interaction, so that it becomes easier to understand and interpret what other people really mean.
