Cultural Competency for Globetrotters

Listen Monday, Jun. 4, 2007 at 12:06 p.m. in Arts & Culture, Politics

A summer vacation or business trip overseas is a great opportunity to encounter different cultures. But it's also an endeavor fraught with unwritten rules of social interactions and unforeseen faux-pas. Kojo and Howard Ross explore cultural competency for globetrotters, and insights we can glean about ourselves through travel.
