In fact, technical communication training has been shown tohave a positive impact on a graduate’s ability to adjust to jobs and achieve career goals [12]. Atechnical communication elective has long been a requirement at top universities, but only afraction require instruction that is integrated within the engineering context [13, 14].

these common scenarios, students likely graduate having learned negative coping strategies, or learned to avoid team environments. “Psychological Safety” is a term first used by Schein and Bennis (1965) to describe how secure and confident an individual is in their ability to manage change. Kahn (1990) later conceptualized psychological safety as an individual’s comfort level to show and employ themselves without fear of negative consequences to self-image, status, or career. Edmonson (1999), however, argued that psychological safety is best viewed as an attribute of team climate. Edmonson defines psychological safety as “a belief that one will not be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns, or

Learning how to appreciate and understand different cultures can help avoid misunderstandings and create more meaningful relationships. 2.
