In an increasingly globalised world, building relationships, social ties and businesses partnerships relies on being able to communicate effectively across cultures. This module cultivates effective 21st-century communication skills to stay connected in a globalised world. Students explore the importance of communication in a globalised environment and come to understand work place expectations of an employee’s communication skills, including persuasion, presentation, pitch and report writing skills. They will also learn to identify their audience’s needs, purpose in communication and the various contexts and expectations so as to effectively communicate in both formal and informal settings. By the end of the module, students will be equipped with the necessary skills, both oral and written, to address a variety of communication needs in a global setting.
