Leading and Managing in Culturally Diverse Environments - BUS854

To succeed in a globalised business environment, it is imperative for managers to understand contemporary approaches to leading and managing in culturally diverse environments and explore strategies and tactics for managing international assignments and teams.
Core objectives of this unit are to enhance multicultural competence skills and impart an understanding of how cultural diversity affects managerial behaviour and processes which is highly valued by future employers. The unit utilises a range of assessments such as simulations, experiential exercises, forums, reflective tasks, case studies, presentations and group activities in order to synthesise students' understanding of cross-cultural theories and their ability to apply their learning.
