Cross-cultural communication has become an essential part of modern international business. English functions as the primary global language in multinational corporations, international trade and professional communication. However, differences in cultural values, communication styles and linguistic traditions often create misunderstandings in business interactions. Cross-cultural misunderstandings may negatively influence negotiations, teamwork, business relationships and organizational effectiveness. Successful business communication therefore requires not only English proficiency but also intercultural competence and cultural awareness. This article examines the causes of cross-cultural misunderstandings in Business English communication, the impact of cultural differences on professional interaction and strategies for improving intercultural communication in global business environments.
