Currently, in the talent training of hotel management majors in China, there are problems such as an imperfect intercultural curriculum system, traditional and single teaching methods, a disconnection between practical links and international scenarios, insufficient intercultural experience and competence of teachers, and an incomplete evaluation system. These issues result in graduates struggling to meet the work requirements of the international hotel industry. Based on intercultural communication theory and the characteristics of hotel management majors, this paper defines the core dimensions of intercultural communication competence for talents with international perspectives, analyzes the current training status and bottlenecks, and explores the cultivation path from five aspects: curriculum system reconstruction, teaching method innovation, practical platform construction, teacher team development, and evaluation system optimization. The aim is to assist the industry in cultivating high-quality talents that meet international standards.
