3 Conversation skills are a cross-cultural topic of great interest to me owing to their significance in our progressively diverse global society. Effective communication across cultures necessitates more than just language proficiency; it entails understanding cultural nuances, expectations, and norms influencing communication styles. One’s ability to navigate these differences sensitively and respectfully is necessary to build meaningful connections and foster successful collaborations. I am particularly fascinated by how various cultural backgrounds determine the perception and practice of active listening and how it could be adapted to accommodate diverse communication inclinations (Ilie, 2019). While cross-cultural communication could portent challenges, exploring and accepting these differences could open up opportunities for individual growth, mutual learning, and strengthening relations across cultural boundaries. By getting insights into the role of culture in conversation skills, I anticipate improving my communication skills and promoting intercultural understanding in both personal as well as professional contexts.
