Discussion Post: Cross-Cultural Management
For your original posting, you will respond to the question(s) that are asked for the week. You will want to think about responding fully, in a way that fully answers the question, and also incorporates other aspects of graduate level thinking, such as (for example) critical thinking; analyzing issues from multiple perspectives; demonstrating awareness of costs and opportunities of decisions; incorporating or applying course material; and/or bringing in your own real-world experience with the topic at hand.
For your two responses to other students, you have lots of options. As examples, you can explain why you agree/disagree with what is said, with sufficient explanation or argument to support your position; you can evaluate what is said by comparing/contrasting what we are learning in the course, or with your experience or knowledge; you can also share an example or story that illustrates the point that the original poster made.
Questions you have to answer this week:
Think about a successful cross-cultural negotiation you have ever been involved with, or that you have seen or observed.
o Describe it.
o Describe any identifiable cultural elements.
o What made the negotiation successful?
o What can you learn from this successful negotiation to make future negotiations more successful?
The response must include a reference list. Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
