Cross Cultural Management

This advanced level business course is designed to provide an awareness of the challenges and opportunities that are presented when management is conducted across cultural and national boundaries. The core material considers elements of managerial and organizational significance in communication, motivation, teamwork, culture, leadership, structure, change, and human resources. Each of these elements has to be reinterpreted in international and inter -cultural contexts. Issues such as culture, communication, and national difference have to be approached and efforts made to optimize the innovation and changed perspectives provided by inclusion of other cultural dimensions and of diversity in the workplace. Prior courses in Management and/or Business, or similar relevant experience are recommended before taking this course. This course is offered for our International Education program students.
