Have you heard of the phrase \u201cThird Culture Kids (TCK)\u201d before?
\nIf the \u201cfirst culture\u201d is that of a person\u2019s parents, and the \u201csecond culture\u201d is that of the country or region where the family currently lives, then the \u201cthird culture\u201d is a combination of different cultures which may or may not contain parts of the first two, and TCKs are the children raised in, and feel attachment to, this multicultural third culture.<\/p>\n

TCKs have a strong global outlook having been raised in a multicultural environment where they often gain a broader set of values regarding issues such as nationality and religion.<\/p>\n

These days, with continuing global change, 1 in 30 people has lived outside their own country. How do TCKs form their identity in the midst of multiculturalism? Within that process, there is a secret that we should be aware of so that we too can improve our own \u201cintercultural communication ability\u201d from today onwards.<\/p>\n

At this ICC talk session, we have invited Ms. Saeko Mizuta, Founder and CEO of TCK Workshop Co. as our guest. Ms. Mizuta was raised in New York City as a child and then completed her MBA at Harvard Business School. Afterwards, she started a business supporting TCK education and talent cultivation in Japan.<\/p>\n

Ms. Mizuta will explain from a teacher\u2019s point of view about how the multicultural environment in which TCKs are raised cultivates the ability for them to adapt to different cultures easily and to have flexibility in their outlook which allows them to respect differing value systems.<\/p>\n

This is a great chance to hear the real voice of someone who has experienced living and studying abroad about what they have learned through intercultural communication and hardship.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re thinking of studying abroad yourself, if you want some hints about how to make yourself more global, then come and listen to this talk with us!<\/p>\n
