Abstract | A study at Brigham Young University (Utah) sought to identify basic concepts to teach graduate students preparing for international business careers. Business presentations by graduate students fluent in English and at least one other language were examined for evidence of teachable skills for working with business in two languages. Presentations were videotaped in both English and one other language. Presenters and evaluators viewed the tapes and completed evaluations. Four teachable concepts emerged, including include: (1) use of audience analysis to determine appropriate communication strategies; (2) organization of the presentation to enhance listener comprehension and compensate for grammatical errors and cultural differences; (3) self-confidence; and (4) simplification of the idea and its expression in the foreign language. Appended materials include the form used by presentation evaluators, and a sample description of culturally appropriate behavior for Finland. (MSE) |
