Worksheet: Culture Shock
Have you ever traveled to a foreign country? If not, have you ever watched a show that was filmed in a foreign country and you imagined what it would be like to live there?
Culture shock is a common experience for individuals who must adjust to living in a different environment and doing things in different ways.
For example, if you lived in nearly any European country, you would have to adjust to driving on the left side of the road, rather than on the right.
Additionally, culture shock can also occur within one's own country, since many subcultures exist.
If you think about it, in any organization, there are different subcultures - executives, managers, supervisors, workers, contractors, and so forth.
For the assignment this week, you will describe an experience of your own that relates to culture shock and identify a subculture to which you belong, including a description of the terminology, customs, and practices that unite its members.
