BUS 351 - Cross-Cultural Management

This course addresses the challenges and opportunities that managers experience in international or multicultural environments. The purpose is to develop students’ understanding and behavioral skills relevant to the interaction of different cultures in business settings. Using a variety of methods – experiential learning, case studies, research, and hands-on activities in the classroom – the ultimate goal is to assist students in developing cross-cultural competencies to be future global managers. These competencies include cultural knowledge and sensitivity, conflict resolution, tolerance of ambiguity, and cognitive complexity.
