COMMUNICATION AD GLOBALIZATION New Copy1

COMMUNICATION AND GLOBALIZATION

Communication is essential for personal and professional effectiveness. It helps establish good
relationships, creates a better working environment, strengths collaboration and cooperation,
and unifies conflicting ideas.

Globalization is the expansion and integration of the cultural, political, economic and
technological domains of countries This reflects that the world is borderless and the countries
are interconnected and independent. For example, US has Starbucks and McDonalds, Japan has
Toyota and Honda, and the Phil. Has Jollibee and Bench that have expanded overseas and have
become transnational or multinational.

Globalization is the spread of products, technology, information, and jobs across national
borders and cultures. In economic terms, it describes an interdependence of nations around the
globe fostered through free trade.
Globalization is the free movement of goods, services and people across the world in a
seamless and integrated manner. Globalization can be thought of to be the result of the
opening up of the global economy and the concomitant increase in trade between nations. ...
This is a brief introduction to globalization.
Global communication is directly affected by the process of globalization, and helps to

increase business opportunities, remove cultural barriers and develop a global village.
Both globalization and global communication have changed the environmental, cultural,
political and economic elements of the world.
The importance of communication in globalization is paramount because individuals from

different countries, ethnicities, languages, cultural attitudes and other variations must
understand one another and express themselves to another effectively in order to work
together.
Increased Business Opportunities

Many companies today hire employees that are located in other countries. Using
communication vehicles such as video calling make it simple to converse with
colleagues across the globe, almost making it feel as if they are in the same room.
Technology also makes it easier to connect with suppliers and customers all over the
world, and to streamline those relationship through improves ordering, shipment
tracking and so on. With this kind of communication technology, many businesses are
able to take advantage of opportunities in different countries or cities, improving the
economic outlook on a global level.
Thanks to global communications, information itself can be transferred as a valuable

business asset from one country to another. This has the effect of making everyone's
operations more modern and efficient, regardless where they are located.
Fewer Cultural Barriers
Many people perceive culture to be the root of communication challenges. When people from
two different cultures try to exchange information, the way they speak, their body language or
their mannerisms can be interpreted differently by the other person. The way people approach
problems and how they participate in communities is all influenced by culture.
Globalization has made it possible, for example, for someone in Japan to understand how
someone in the U.S. goes about their day. With television and movies, cultural barriers are
becoming less prevalent. Being able to communicate effectively and frequently with colleagues
or friends across the planet helps people understand each other’s cultures a little better.
Creation of a Global Village

You’ve likely heard of the phrase "global village," coined by theorist Marshall McLuhan.
Affected both by globalization and global communication, the global village is created when
distance and isolation no longer matter because people are connected by technology. Wide-
spread telephone and internet access have been life-changing for many people across the
world, especially those in developing countries. Many are now enrolling in universities across
the world without having to leave their desk chair. Virtual assistant jobs are becoming
commonplace, where employees from developing countries work with companies in North
America or Europe, providing administrative support and other business services that can
easily be conducted over the phone or via the internet.
Globalization and global communication have made it easier to see people on the other side of
the world as a neighbor, instead of a stranger from a faraway land. There is so much
knowledge about other countries and cultures available online, that it’s no longer a complete
mystery.
