Cultural Autobiography Report: Intercultural Competences, MAR013-1

This report delves into the concept of intercultural competence by analyzing cultural autobiographies. The assignment begins with a cultural autobiography questionnaire completed by the student, followed by an interview with a colleague from a different cultural background using the same questionnaire. The report then compares and contrasts the two autobiographies, highlighting similarities and differences in cultural values and beliefs. Subsequently, the report utilizes cultural frameworks, specifically Hofstede's cultural dimensions, to evaluate the identified similarities and differences. The analysis provides insights into the cultural profiles of the individuals involved, emphasizing the impact of cultural dimensions on behavior, communication, and workplace interactions. The report concludes with a summary of the findings and implications for effective intercultural communication.
