Intercultural communication involves communication between people from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Culture encompasses language, values, beliefs, behaviors, etiquette, and expectations, and helps form cultural identity. Intercultural communication is important for library and information services as it helps clients be understood and services delivered effectively through skills like listening, speaking clearly, observing body language, and having patience and flexibility across cultures to minimize misunderstandings. In today's multicultural world and workplaces, intercultural communication is key to building relationships, resolving potential problems from cultural ignorance, and improving teamwork and cooperation between diverse staff.

EFFECTIVE INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION – We all know that communication is the foundation of our community life. Effective communication occurs only if we understand each other and is essential for both, our personal and professional life. However, our world and the society itself have transformed into globalized ones including economic, technological and socio-cultural changes causing the integration of national economies into the international one. Consequently, understanding people of different cultures, backgrounds and communication patterns has become our everyday reality thus emphasizing the importance of effective intercultural communication. In other words, developing and broadening our cultural awareness, promoting clearer communication, breaking down barriers, building trust, strengthening relationship, and achieving better results in terms of business success have become an essential part of our school. This way we broaden our knowledge about multiculturalism by developing intercultural competences thus stressing the importance of mutual respect and understanding.
Cross cultural communication refers to the communication between people who have differences in any one of the following: styles of working, age, nationality, ethnicity, race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. Cross cultural communication can also refer to the attempts that are made to exchange, negotiate and mediate cultural differences by means of language, gestures and body language. It is how people belonging to different cultures communicate with each other.
This PPT is based on intercultural communication. It includes definition, types, background, view of researchers, major aspects of human interaction communication.
