Hinweis zu dieser Übung

Dieses Quiz soll allgemeine Kommunikationstendenzen sichtbar machen – keine festen Regeln oder Schubladen.

In jeder Kultur gibt es sehr unterschiedliche Persönlichkeiten und Verhaltensweisen. Man findet direkte Briten, sehr diplomatische Deutsche, zurückhaltende Französ:innen oder sehr offene polnische Führungskräfte. Kultur beeinflusst Verhalten – aber sie bestimmt es niemals vollständig.

Die Beispielsätze in dieser Übung sind bewusst vereinfacht und teilweise zugespitzt. Sie sollen helfen:

  • typische Kommunikationsmuster zu erkennen

  • indirekte oder direkte Signale besser einzuordnen

  • mögliche Missverständnisse frühzeitig wahrzunehmen

  • das eigene Kommunikationsverhalten zu reflektieren

Im echten Berufsalltag wird Verhalten von vielen Faktoren geprägt:

  • Persönlichkeit

  • beruflicher Hintergrund

  • Unternehmenskultur

  • Region

  • Generation

  • internationale Erfahrung

  • Das Ziel ist nicht, Menschen zu etikettieren, sondern Sensibilität zu entwickeln.
    Interkulturelle Kompetenz beginnt dort, wo wir verstehen:
  • Was für uns „normal“ wirkt, kann für andere ungewohnt oder irritierend sein – und umgekehrt.
