To this effect, this course allows students to gain an in-depth understanding of an critically analyze the ways in which cross cultural differences in values have consequences for management behaviors in terms of cooperation, ethics and decision making, leadership, negotiation, team work, and human resources. This approach will allow students to gain an understanding of how the broader context of difference and dependence among nations and people materializes into individual and group differences in conceptualizing and practicing cross cultural/international management.
