Playing the Way to Shared Understanding

Chapter 10 in International Management and Intercultural Communication, 2015, pp 132-143 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The introduction to Volume 1, Chapter 2 in this collection (“Intercultural Communication in Selection Interviews,” by Choon-Hwa Lim, Meena Chavan and Lucy Taksa) discusses how the meaning of words is generated contextually and depends on their use. Lim et al.’s study is a description and analysis of a particular context for cross-cultural communication. In the present chapter, Leigh has cunningly created a “live” case study of individuals’ interpretations of their experiences of simulation games. She demonstrates thereby how case studies convey more meaning than is confined in the actual words that describe them.
