We research
metacognitive communication
This infographic picture summarises our research about metacognitive communication. It includes 127 elements that are reality-tested conversation techniques, non-verbal behaviours, rules-of-thumb and visual mental models organised into four levels.
The 8 Lenses in this infographic observe and describe your communication patterns from a unique perspective, each offering an insightful look into your thought processes and behaviours related to mindful and intercultural communication - as we call it - Conscious Communication.
Know and own your behaviours
This collection of elements opens a new language to think and talk about your inner and outer communication. This is related to mindfulness that helps you to be aware of what is going on around you especially when communicating with people from different cultures. Developing mindful communication helps you to plan, monitor, adjust and reflect on what you are doing.

How do I use these resources?
