The purpose of this course is to develop both the intellectual understanding and the behavioural skills necessary to manage effectively in other cultural environments and to work effectively with people from other cultures. The objectives of the course are: to develop an awareness of the pervasive and hidden influence of culture on behaviour, particularly with respect to management and management practices; to develop familiarity with the types of situations and issues which managers often confront when working internationally; and to develop an appreciation of the impact on personal behaviour of living and working in another culture.
