About the Author Index Excerpt: What Makes Cultures So Unique? Differences Are the Spice of Life! Have you ever given serious thought to what creates cultural differences? We all know, of course, that these differences exist, but what is really involved in making each culture so unique? This is one of the first questions we ask attendees in our cross-cultural classes at Circles Of Excellence. It provokes thought in everyone—and quite the myriad of different responses! Some people assume we are just born different. Others cite our country, region, and language as forces that create these differences. Then there are those who feel that tradition, beliefs, religion, and family are what make us so distinct from one another. Of course, every one of these answers is absolutely correct; there is no wrong answer. When we consider the different elements that affect cultural distinctions, we realize that it all starts from our moment of birth. Before we can even see, we hear language all around us—and for the most part, the main language we hear will become our mother tongue language. That language’s sounds, expression, and melody will have a profound effect on how we develop and communicate. Related Torrents
