Description:As the world becomes increasingly multicultural, so too the need increase’s for information and understanding on issues such as Diversity and Cultural awareness.A negative by-product the spread of ethnicities far and wide along with urbanisation has spawned is a rapid increase in criminal activity. In today’s world of internet and ease of air travel, Transnational Crime is certainly on the rise and international organised crime groups are more than keeping up with opportunities around the globe.As a result not only those working with multi-national companies but enforcement officers from Agencies/Organisations worldwide are now faced on a daily basis with suspects and/or victims that may well hail from cultures other than their own.After a decade as a well known Private Investigator in South East Asia, having dodged a few bullets (not only metaphorical ones) for the wellbeing of myself and my young daughter I repatriated to my native New Zealand. An interest in Trans-national crime saw me take up relevant academic studies, culminating in a Master’s degree and an award winning research paper that had led me to aspects of psychology as it related to Cross Cultural Investigative Interviewing. It was in the psychology field that I finally came to realise why I had been successful as an Investigator ~ and it wasn’t all just down to dumb luck ! In a word, it could be put down to a term I hadn’t heard of, but one which I soon came to take a great deal of interest in ;EPISTEMOLOGY – The study of ‘THE WAY WE THINK’. Rapport, Understanding, Affinity ; are words various programmes or instructors in interview techniques often champion. I have found that in cross-cultural or Diversity challenged interviews, rather more is required to maximise information retrieval. The object of this book is to arm interviewers with that additional knowledge.It explains how and why one of the most vital attributes an interviewer can have is ~An understanding of the epistemology of your subject.As part of my research I interviewed a number of Asians domiciled in Australasia. I was able to get them to extend past the “You have a beautiful country” polite answer they believed I wanted and have them to talk to me from the heart. As Nelson Mandela very aptly quotes ~"Talk to a man in a language he understands it goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart" The overwhelming response I received from this research was that although we invite Asians to tour our countries, we rarely invite them into our homes. The majority in fact felt that many Westerners appear arrogant and/or racial to them. In my view this is not really the case; however I would agree that :–Many of us don’t take the time or believe we need to understand the beliefs, culture, way of thinking (epistemology) of those people with whom we increasingly find ourselves interacting ; who happen to hail from a different culture to our own.This book aims to go some way towards righting that anomaly.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
