About the workshop

This one-hour workshop introduces students to the idea that advertisers operate in a global world, creating messages for and interacting with people from different cultures. We will discuss the complexities of cultural differences and similarities and learn a communication model that helps advertising professionals develop culturally-relevant messages around the world. At the core of this workshop are different case studies that students will use to interpret ad messages from different countries using the model introduced earlier.

Learning Objectives
  • To understand the difference between domestic and global advertising
  • To recognize different cultural dimensions in advertising messages
  • To apply a communication model to interpret messages from different countries
