Abstract
Intercultural communication involves the study of differences (and similarities) within and between cultures. With its history in the US Foreign Services Institute's need to train diplomats sent on international missions to evolving into its own disciplinary identity, the field has always represented the multiple theoretical and methodological approaches of its scholars while continuing to remain reflexive of its contributions to knowledge. Within organizational communication, intercultural communication has predominantly been addressed from the perspective of diverse domestic US groups based on gender and race. However, as organizational communication tries to shed its US and European dominance, more research pertaining to international and subaltern perspectives or intercultural organizational communication is now available. In addition, the discussion explains cultural dimensions: universalism versus particularism, individualism versus collectivism, neutral versus affective, masculinity versus femininity, uncertainty avoidance, power distance, and high context versus low context.
