      abstract = {Management practices and processes frequently differ  across national and regional boundaries. What may be  acceptable managerial behaviour in one culture may be  counterproductive or even unacceptable in another. As  managers increasingly find themselves working across  cultures, the need to understand these differences has  become increasingly important. This book examines why these  differences exist and how global managers can develop  strategies and tactics to deal with them. The book draws on  recent research in anthropology, psychology, and management  to explain the cultural and psychological underpinnings  that shape managerial attitudes and behaviours. It  introduces a learning model to guide in the intellectual  and practical development of managers seeking enhanced  global expertise. It also offers user friendly conceptual  models to guide understanding and exploration of topics,  and summarizes and integrates the lessons learned in each  chapter in applications oriented "Manager's Notebooks".},
