Session 1: "Introduction to Intercultural Management"
Speaker: Distinguished Professor Dato' Dr. Rajah Rasiah, Professor of Economics, Asia-Europe Institute, Universiti Malaya
Moderator: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sameer Kumar, Asia-Europe Institute, Universiti Malaya
Abstract: Intercultural Management has become an increasingly important field of management. The concept refers to an awareness, understanding and respect of other cultures in an international context. The application of it requires acknowledgement of cultural differences in management, which as a concept, has diffused into all aspects of management. Intercultural management had particularly evolved strongly to manage successful cross-cultural and cohesive teams. Its mastery requires the development of cross-cultural capabilities, which offers the potential to management cross-border, regional, and global activities. In this presentation, using examples, I focus on why it is important, and how it has progressed in selected areas of management, such as marketing and production. |
