I simply think it is the worst way to work and build things: “indirectly” communication and feedback. There is a lot misunderstanding in between. I don’t understand that once we resolved a conflict it should end. But people keep doing “revenges” Everything is an immaturity to any Project and Organization. Lack of motivation and recognizement is another thing that affect the all team.
I believe that you have covered fundamental aspects in your discussion. Let me add that in some cultures, there is something we call nepotism, if this is the right word. In the Arab culture, we call it “Mahsoobiah”. If I am the manager, I appoint someone from my side, i.e., relative of someone I know. This person may know how to do the or he may not. In all cases, and even if he knows how to stick to his job description, all in all, he will end up being the spy of the manager who appointed him. This will always be done to show his thankfulness for being selected. In some cultures, most of the organization's staff are appointed by nepotism more than qualifications, and other employees from different cultures have to do most of the work because they are genuinely qualified.
that was a very well-structured and effective way to break the concept into such easy and simple sections that were really easy to digest! I'm surprised this didn't get more views! thank your for such a brief and brilliant explanation!
Thank you so much. I have traveled to many places around the world and I find what you have presented to be my experience and quite relevant. I learned some things as well. Thanks again, God bless.
Hello! Thanks for sharing your knowledge in such a clear way. It was super easy to understand. In adition, and as an English student I have to say the way you presented the information and how you speak is very helpful. Greetings from Mexico!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge Brenda in such a clear and encouraging way! Quite interesting! Am I right to conclude that intercultural competence provides specific principles and tactics to take your leadership to the next level in international environments, such as for example... the internet?
Thanks for your comment Neil. Intercultural competence is all about being effective when you interact with people from other cultures in whatever context you choose!
