Drawing on research insights from various disciplines, this lecture will describe the knowledge, skills and qualities people working interculturally ideally require in order to handle the complexity of working abroad. With the help of film sequences and insights from the presenter’s many years of research, training and consultancy experience, the lecture will illustrate some of the constituent components of intercultural competence and briefly present attempts to reduce its complexity in the form of competence frameworks. In passing it will discuss the extent to which intercultural competence is susceptible to overt development actions in education, training and coaching. Supported by online-tools, the session will consist of a mixture of presentation and discussion.
