What are We Talking About Today? • Variations by “culture” in thought, action
and reaction
Why talk about these variations? Because, as K-12 & community college administrators, you are
• Gatekeepers• Mediators• Motivators • Standard-Setters
But really, really busy and without enough time for all the fights and fires
So, Choices?
Shortcuts?Awareness?
Terminology?

Studying Intercultural Communication:
Key Images
Culture as an Iceberg:
• The visible portion is but a fraction of the whole
• The unseen portion offers • foundation • balance • additional substance • counterpoint• hazzard to the unaware
• The waterline represents the shift between known and unknown
•occurs at various points for various people
• slides and waves and wanders for even the most culturally sensitive

The Richard Lewis Model
![Page 10: The Cultural Dimensions of Globalization 20-June-2011 Tim Flood, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Management [Global] & Corporate Communication UNC Kenan-Flagler.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649d2d5503460f94a03e88/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Lewis’ Activity Matrices Linear Active: bases actions on
facts, standards, customs, norms. Logical.
Reactive: bases actions on the particulars of a specific time, incident, or collaborator. Situational.
Multi-Active: bases actions on no one model, often acts “from the heart” or without thinking. Spontaneous.
• Bases truth on facts, data, science• Prefers plans, schedules, timeframes• Values credibility and individuality • Rarely interrupts • Rarely shows emotions in public situations
• Defers truth in favor of respect, saving face• Seems time as fluid and flexible• Values hierarchy and relationships • Rarely interrupts or speaks out • Prioritizes respectful responses in public
• Bases truth on immediate impact/outcome• Rarely keeps schedules or holds to plans • Values relationships and friendship• Interrupts frequently • Sees emotionality as essential

“Nice to meet you.”
“Yeah, nice to meet you too.”
“You are very kind.”
“Hey gorgeous! My great pleasure is to meet you.”

“Do you have your
paperwork?”
“Yes, two copies.”
“Yes, thank you very much for your kind help.”
“I don’t; do you have copies I could fill out here?”

“Do you understand
what I’m saying?”

“Yes.” (Even if they don’t )
“I’m sorry; what were you saying?”

“Our office is open 9:00 to
5:00.”
Great, thank you.
See you at 8:45 but no rush.
I can’t get there until 6:30. Would you wait?
![Page 16: The Cultural Dimensions of Globalization 20-June-2011 Tim Flood, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Management [Global] & Corporate Communication UNC Kenan-Flagler.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649d2d5503460f94a03e88/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“Shall we meet at 11:00?”
See you at 11:00
Doesn’t say this out loud but thinks and does
I’ll arrive at 10:00 and wait
Agrees but then actually behaves like this:
I’ll be glad to see you whenever I arrive
![Page 17: The Cultural Dimensions of Globalization 20-June-2011 Tim Flood, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Management [Global] & Corporate Communication UNC Kenan-Flagler.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649d2d5503460f94a03e88/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
“No, I can’t do that for
you.”
Why not?
Thank you.
Sure you can; what about these options?

Talking to someone who
stole, misrepresented, failed to deliver on a promise
“Prove it.”
“No, I would never do that.” [Whether accurate or inaccurate]
“So what?”

Denial Minimization Adaptation
5 Dimensions of Cultural Acclimation
The Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) -- http://www.idiinventory.com/
· Denial: the state in which one's own culture is experienced as the only real one. Other cultures are avoided by maintaining psychological and/or physical isolation from differences.
· Defense (Polarization or Reversal): the state in which one's own culture (or an adopted culture) is experienced as the only good one.
· Minimization: the state in which elements of one's own cultural world view are experienced as universal. Because these absolutes obscure deep cultural differences, other cultures may be trivialized or romanticized.
·Acceptance: the state in one's own culture is experienced as just one of a number of equally complex worldviews. Acceptance does not mean agreement - cultural difference may be judged negatively - but the judgment is not ethnocentric.
·Adaptation: the state in which the experience of another culture yields perception and behavior appropriate to that culture. One's repertoire of culture behavior is expanded to include a variety of viable options.

Let’s Look at the “Arab Spring”

• Ongoing
• Globally Impactful
• Teachable
• So far, a bit far from us
Demands• Jobs• Higher Wages• Lower Day-to-Day Expenses• Reinvigorated Subsidies on ‘Essentials’ (Food, Gas, Electricity)

“As we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know.
We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some
things we do not know.
But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know.“
--Donald Rumsfeld

The Meaning BehindThe MessageThanks, Rachel and Janelle!

Save water by flushing twice?
Nonsense?

The Meaning BehindThe MessageThanks, Rachel and Janelle!
Save water by flushing twice?
Nonsense. . . or not: by thesaurus

The Meaning BehindThe MessageThanks, Dillon!
Save water by flushing twice?
Nonsense. . . or not:by translation
“Please, it is not necessary to flush a
second time to dispose of liquid
waste.”
![Page 32: The Cultural Dimensions of Globalization 20-June-2011 Tim Flood, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Management [Global] & Corporate Communication UNC Kenan-Flagler.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649d2d5503460f94a03e88/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Meaning BehindThe MessageThanks, Eren!
Save water by flushing twice?
Nonsense. . . or not:by native fluency
“Please push the flush lever twice to stop unnecessary water
use.”
(You know some flush systems stop pumping additional water to the reservoir if you hit the flush button once more after flushing, so the statement actually makes sense if you know how they work.)

“ The US needs to create a protective framework for local people to make their own choices. . .
and then the US needs to let the locals make their own choices.”
What’s the answer?
Empower people but keep your opinions to
yourself?

What are We Talking About Today? • Variations by “culture” in thought, action
and reaction
Why talk about these variations? Because, as educators, we also ‘need to create a protective framework. . . for people to make their own choices’
If not us, then who?
