演讲内容简介：

In this research we conceptualize the construct of communication context as the multiplicity of cues that can be drawn upon to convey and understand meaning. We then hypothesize and demonstrate that (a) individual attention to communication context may differ as a function of individual self-construal, and (b) individual cultural intelligence may differ as a result of the degree of reliance on contextual cues in communication. Using five independent samples collected from three countries, we first develop and cross-culturally validate a four- component model of context-free to context-dependent communication that accounts for cues in the message, relationship, temporal and special contexts. Our data reveal that individuals with a stronger interdependent self-construal are more likely to pay attention to and rely on communication context to convey meaning. Our findings also show that individuals who pay more attention to, or rely more on communication context in conveying meaning have higher cultural intelligence. From a global workforce perspective, we discuss the theoretical and empirical implications of these findings for understanding the processes and outcomes of communication among organizational members.
