Download or read book Management interculturel written by Susan C. Schneider and published by Pearson. This book was released on 2003 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Management interculturel est destiné aux étudiants de deuxième et troisième cycles universitaires, à ceux qui préparent un MBA, ainsi qu'aux cadres et dirigeants qui travaillent dans un environnement international. Parce que les responsabilités et les contacts à l'échelle internationale deviennent monnaie courante, que l'entreprise accueille de plus en plus de collaborateurs de nationalités différentes, le management des différences culturelles est devenu pour les étudiants un sujet incontournable, pour les dirigeants une compétence indispensable. L'ouvrage se compose de trois parties. La première fournit au lecteur un cadre conceptuel permettant d'analyser ce qu'est une culture, qu'elle soit nationale, régionale, sectorielle, où bien encore propre à une entreprise ou un métier. La deuxième partie montre comment la culture influence les pratiques managériales (choix d'organisation, stratégies, gestion des ressources humaines) et la façon d'importer ou d'exporter les meilleures d'entre elles. La troisième partie met l'accent sur les façons les plus efficaces dont les dirigeants gèrent au quotidien les différences culturelles. En faisant constamment le lien entre travaux universitaires et pratiques observées en entreprises, ce livre ne se contente pas de faire le point sur les recherches actuelles et d'en proposer une synthèse efficace ; il montre aussi comment analyser sa propre culture et transformer ses différences en avantages concurrentiels.

Download or read book Intercultural Management written by Dirk Holtbrügge and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook explores the reasons for intercultural differences and their effects on the behavior of individuals and organizations within the context of management. The text embraces the presence of ambiguity and complexity and encourages critical thinking when it comes to intercultural relations in order to avoid ethnocentrism, stereotyping and prejudice, as well as overly simplistic solutions. Integrating findings from management, but also the humanities and social sciences, as well as politics and popular culture, intercultural management is understood as a phenomenon that transcends disciplinary boundaries and includes questions around identity constructions, power relations, and ethics. This makes intercultural management a fascinating and rewarding subject to study. Throughout, the author encourages an analytical approach to intercultural management built upon strong methodological foundations, and draws on examples from a wide range of different contexts and cultures to help reflectively translate research and concepts into practice in a way that is lively and engaging. This textbook is essential reading for students taking university courses related to intercultural management. Lecturers can visit the companion website to access a Teaching Guide and PowerPoint slides that can be adapted and edited to suit teaching needs. Dirk Holtbrügge is Professor of International Management at the School of Business, Economics and Society, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany.

This is a book every global manager and cross-cultural educator should have on his or her bookshelf.Õ Ð Mark E. Mendenhall, University of Tennessee, Chattanooga, US ÔThis is a unique, alternative view of culture that has both practical and theoretical significance.

The cases address significant cross-cultural issues, providing useful lessons and richer perspectives on culture.Õ Ð Joyce Osland, San JosŽ State University, US ÔThis book is an excellent collection of practical and useful cases in cross-cultural management, with some that are very different from what we would call ÒtraditionalÓ cases in cross-cultural management.

This insightful book is excellent reading for practitioners as well as scholars and students interested in applications in the field of cross-cultural management.Õ Ð Cordula Barzantny, Toulouse Business School, France ÔThis volume offers an insightful introduction to qualitative field research aiming to understand the dynamics in intercultural business interactions. Based on the findings provided in ten rich cases from Asia, Europe, North Africa, USA and Latin America, the editors also propose strategies for more effective collaboration in challenging multiple-cultures contexts. The authors and editors have succeeded in transforming the field studies into cases that are stimulating and thought provoking readings, both for practitioners and students of cross-cultural management.Õ Ð Anne-Marie S¿derberg, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark Based on the view that culture is dynamic and negotiated between actors, this groundbreaking book contains a collection of ten cases on cross-cultural management in practice. The cases draw on field research revealing challenges and insights from working across nations and cultures. Each case provides recommendations for practitioners that are developed into a framework for effective intercultural interactions as well as offering illustrations and insights on how to handle actual cross-cultural issues. This enriching book covers various topics including international collaborations across and within multinational companies, organizational culture in international joint ventures and knowledge transfer. Based on empirical fieldwork and qualitative analyses, this path-breaking book will appeal to graduate and postgraduate students in international management as well as practitioners.
