Training, Language and Culture

When I first attended a lecture by Dr Mai Nguyen-Phuong-Mai at a SIETAR event in London she laid a model brain on the desk and talked about the importance of neuroscience in linguistics and intercultural understanding. Vietnamese by birth, she was associate Professor at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences and travelled the world as lecturer in other universities, particularly Australia. Her first book, Intercultural Communication: A Disciplinary Approach published in 2018 is reviewed by Philip Williams in Training, Language and Culture Volume 2 Issue 2, and her second major book on cross-cultural management was published in 2019.
