Cross-Cultural Management: The Human Side of International Management

Synopsis
Looks at cultural differences and how they affect the process of doing business and managing. Dispels the idea that there is only one way to manage and encourages us understand our own culture in the workplace before managing or doing business with other national cultures. Fons Trompenaars examines seven key dimensions of business behaviour and focuses on the practical steps required to create transcultural competence and reconcile cultural differences by using communication, empathy and creativity.
