Strong theoretical coverage still allows the book to be applications-oriented to business and other organizations on the guiding philosophy and assumption that we can all learn to become better leaders. A cross-cultural perspective, gender-based analyses, focus on leaders' personalities and behavior, and discussion on the role and characteristics of followers complete this treatment.
The Cultural Mindset
Cross-Cultural Management: The Cultural Mindset is based on Dr. Nahavandi's years of teaching, researching, and consulting with many businesses on cross-cultural issues. Built around a think-know-do model, the text enables readers to adopt a cultural mindset that will effectively guide their thinking and behavior as future managers. By focusing on culture in general, the book addresses both national cultural issues and diversity issues. The key underlying theme for both topics is how culture, national or group-related, impacts our perspective - what we value, how we think, how we behave, and how we manage people effectively.
