This course introduces students to the major principles and issues that face managers across cultures. The course offers students a unique cultural perspective on the roots of organizational behavior and management around the world. It utilises a micro approach to introduce students to theories and practices that is necessary to manage successfully in a global economy. Therefore it is a cross cultural approach as opposed to a country specific approach. The course should enable students to understand the effect of culture that can then be applied to a wide variety cross cultural settings. Participants will interact; examine concepts, examine cases to increase awareness and understanding concerning the influence of culture on management and management practices.
