Why Learning International Protocol is Essential in Today's Global Society?

What skills do you reckon are crucial in today’s global society? Many might argue that language proficiency is paramount. However, it’s essential to recognise that language serves as a mere tool. Evaluating the effectiveness of international communication becomes challenging solely through language acquisition. Hence, many emphasise the need for “human skills” in addition to linguistic abilities.

But what exactly are these human skills, and what specific competencies are required?

In the global context, human skills encompass empathy, compassion, cultural awareness, adaptability, and collaboration. Despite their significance, some view these skills as inherent traits.

Imagine if there were guidelines for developing these skills. Such guidance could potentially alleviate the challenges associated with cultivating these qualities, don’t you think?

Indeed, it would. This is where International Protocol, International Manners, and Cross-Cultural Theory come into play.

By acquiring proficiency in these areas, you not only enhance your politeness but also refine your human skills, crucial in navigating international interactions.

Consider this scenario: while you may have a basic understanding of what’s expected in a particular country, executing those expectations in detail isn’t always straightforward. You might find it challenging to discern the correct course of action, even with online information at your disposal.

Enter The InterCultural Protocol Academy of Japan – ICPA.

ICPA stands as the sole internationally accredited school in Japan and the premier institution in Asia for international etiquette and protocol. Here, you’ll not only learn the art of graceful behaviour but also gain insights into handling diverse situations in intercultural exchanges and delve into intercultural theory. The latter proves invaluable in comprehending the nuances of various cultures, surpassing the benefits of language learning alone.

Moreover, ICPA extends its teachings to foreigners seeking an understanding of Japanese culture, etiquette, and business manners.

If your aspirations include success on the global stage, we eagerly anticipate welcoming you to ICPA.
