| book description |

In the dynamic sphere of international business, the role of a global manager is more complex and vital than ever. This textbook crucially departs from the typical Western gaze on cross-cultural management, while offering a unique three way viewpoint taking into account the student, theoretical and practitioner perspectives on every issue. Each chapter explores a key area of cross-cultural management, and includes insights from leading practitioners, contemporary case studies and management theory. Beginning with the foundational aspects of culture, Cross-Cultural Management: Strategic Leadership Beyond Borders swiftly moves into practical management strategies for virtual, hybrid and in-country teams, addressing the nuances of culture shift and the dynamics of change management. The author uses an innovative Cultural Acuity framework to connect theory to application and help you develop the interpretive, reflective, and adaptive skills required to operate effectively in complex international environments. You will also gain insights into the intricacies of geopolitics and how global contexts shape managerial decisions, with a focus on strategic planning tailored to diverse cultural landscapes. The author dissects institutional behaviour to illuminate the impacts of varying procedures, laws and regulations; the chapter on collaboration offers a roadmap from basic teamwork to the creation of high-performing, culturally diverse teams. The textbook delves into the art of talent management in a globalized world, exploring best practices for recruitment, onboarding and retention in multicultural environments. Cross-Cultural Management: Strategic Leadership Beyond Borders is not just a collection of theories; it is enriched with case studies and real-world insights, ensuring that you can apply what you learn directly to your managerial role. It is the perfect resource for managers, researchers and students of International Business and Cross-Cultural Management who aim to lead with foresight, embracing both current cross-cultural realities and the future trends that will shape the global business landscape.
