Life as a journey

I'm starting a research program on communication. This is a fascinating topic - an art, science, talent? How do you communicate? How do you make another person understand you? How do you make another person NOT understand you? It is so different on different levels - we have culture that prescribes us a way to communicate. But what culture are we talking about? Nation? Religion? Profession? Country? Language? They all intersect and differ. Add personal differences on top. Ok, here comes the research topic: "Communication and Cultural Diversity Management In Virtual Software Development Team"
