This module introduces the concept of transferable skills—skills that can be applied across a wide range of career paths and professional roles, including academia, industry, nonprofit, government, and entrepreneurship. The module also previews the three key transferable skill areas covered in this course: leadership, project management, and cross-cultural communication. These core areas were selected not only for their individual importance, but also because they reinforce one another and are critical to success in graduate school and beyond. You'll be encouraged to consider how these skills connect to your professional goals and how they might be integrated into your Individual Development Plan (IDP).

In today’s interconnected world, the ability to communicate effectively across cultural differences is an essential skill for both academic and professional success. This module explores foundational concepts of culture and cross-cultural competency, introducing key metaphors that help us understand culture’s visible and invisible dimensions.

Drawing from interdisciplinary perspectives, the module emphasizes that cross-cultural communication is not a checklist, but a lifelong process of learning, unlearning, and adapting.
