Abstract

Along with the rapid globalization of the era, the public is increasingly paying attention to intercultural communication as an important component to success, both in life and in work. It is general knowledge that human beings cannot live without communication and due to the influence of globalization; communication is no longer confined solely to a community and nationwide level but also on an international scale. Thus, intercultural communication is now more important than it ever was for enterprises. Yet the effective intercultural communication needed for the aforementioned success is difficult to achieve. This paper will discuss the obstacles that a manager should overcome in order to achieve intercultural communication.
