Intercultural Management

This lecture aims to explore the different cultural strata and their interrelationships, in order to provide keys to understanding and useful frames of reference for the practice of intercultural management. The relationship with otherness, which derives from how we relate to the world, is inscribed in and constructed by interactions, situations and contexts. It is thus essential to develop the intercultural competence and awareness of managers who work with people from different cultural backgrounds.
