Cross-Cultural and International Issues
Imagine yourself as a manager who has been working for the XYZ Corporation in Boston for the last three years. You are being sent for a six month assignment to another country, which is culturally quite different from the U.S. Describe Hofstede’s framework, use it to compare the American culture with the culture in which you’ll be working for the next six months, and describe what you might do to enhance your chances of success dealing the cross-cultural challenges of this assignment.
