The power of international protocol and Etiquette of East and West to transform your future and inspire others
Protocol refers to social norms and procedures, particularly in formal or international contexts, outlining appropriate behaviour and communication methods. It does not simply signify international standard etiquette but rather denotes official rules agreed upon by nations or organisations. In today’s global society, this is an essential skill that one must acquire.
International etiquette, on the other hand, encompasses norms of courtesy based on the cultural backgrounds of various countries, serving as rules of considerate conduct. These manners evolve with culture, organisation, and time, and like international protocol, they contribute to fostering respect and trust when interacting with people from diverse cultural backgrounds.
Cross-cultural understanding is an indispensable skill in the contemporary global society. It involves analysing and deeply understanding the emotions, actions, and tendencies of individuals based on historical, cultural, and religious backgrounds, facilitating smooth international communication.
These international competencies are crucial skills that everyone should acquire in today’s globalised world.
The InterCultual Protocol Academy of Japan (ICPA) offers comprehensive education in these skills and knowledge. We support learners in achieving success on the international stage. Our research spanning over two decades has shown that the fundamental principles of international protocol and etiquette align with the historical philosophies and customs of Japan. Studying both Eastern and Western protocols, rituals, and etiquettes in Japan can significantly enhance one’s international competence.
