Course description
This course introduces students to essential principles and challenges that managers encounter across different cultures. Using a micro approach, the course introduces students to theories and practices of management in a global economy. It offers students a unique cultural perspective on the roots of behaviour and management around the world. It takes a cross-cultural approach rather than focusing on any single country, enabling students to understand and apply the impact of culture in various cross-cultural settings.
