This program examines the concept of communication and the challenge of communicating with people who have different cultural and/or gender backgrounds and experiences. We look at communication in relation to gender as well as culture and explore how various communication issues can affect the workplace.
Participants consider what communication is and what it's not, what makes it work and what hinders it.
