Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Communications - Intercultural Communication, grade: 1,7, language: English, abstract: Time and space surround every people all around the world and are taken for granted in everyday life. Both are physical quantities which are subject to physical laws. These laws are the same anywhere in the world. However, there is yet another definition of these two concepts. The following paper examines the dimensions 'time' and 'space' in a cultural context. It describes the approach of Edward T. Hall to both dimensions and discusses their relevance in professional cultural interaction. The goal is to provide insights into factors influencing cultural behaviour. These insights can be useful for any area of a company, from leadership to human resources to marketing.
