@Pstm46dEOpKzZdv It's available through regular bookstores, but sadly is very expensive. Some universities provide access through their libraries.

The Cambridge Handbook of Intercultural Pragmatics (Nov 2022) has many useful chapters providing intercultural perspectives on topics such as context, (mis)understanding, humour, emotion, rapport, online teamwork, business & health communication, language learning, etc.

Employees are increasingly encouraged to be themselves at work. But is it wise in all contexts? Recent research has sounded a note of caution. GPC Latest Research Insight reports on this fascinating study. bit.ly/3zHsIgM #AuthenticMe #workplace

When mentioning culture, people often think about national culture. Yet ‘nation’ is just one contextual level of culture. My 3-part series, Context & Culture, unpacks this, including how the levels can interact to affect careers in the workplace. globalpeopleconsulting.com/context-and-cu…

@TroyMcConachy @KatSidaway Indeed. I was really shocked to hear this. He was not only an outstanding researcher - influencing and stimulating so many of us with his brilliant work - but also a wonderfully kind person. A tremendous loss.

@MarshaRamroop @DavidLivermore I completely agree @MarshaRamroop. Inclusivity is hugely important. It can be undermined by both 'them/us' identity perceptions and contextually-based different beliefs/values/practices. As you say, it needs to be a core principle of working together.
