What is intercultural communication?

Intercultural communication means the way we communicate and behave with people from other cultures. These other cultures are not just national but organizational, generational, religious. Globalization and the rise of remote work has imposed communication with other cultures we might not have previously rubbed up against and we may not really know, well, how to do it. It is impossible to know about every culture but Curios gives you the tools to be curious, to recognize bias and communicate more confidently and effectively with others. Some subjects we look at include different cultural models; tools for dealing with cultural misunderstandings; working in multicultural teams; and the dominance of English.

What is emotional intelligence?

Emotional intelligence means understanding emotions, taking charge of them and using them wisely in our interactions. They are not confined to our personal relationships - emotions exist in both our personal and professional lives and should not be neglected. Curios helps you pinpoint your own emotions so you can better read the well-being of others around you, and engage in wiser, more empathic connections. We learn, inter alia, how to regulate emotions; their use in decision-making; how to cultivate empathy; and about cultural variance in emotion expression.
