This book addresses one of the most critical issues facing global
business leaders and the multicultural workforce - how to work and
relate effectively in the intercultural contexts. The author
presents business professionals, practitioners and academics with
the Collaborative Intercultural Competence Model. Based on solid
theoretical assumptions and real intercultural experiences, this
model is to help professionals work more effectively across and
within cultures. This book expands the traditional presentation of
existing knowledge by providing a unified discussion of
intercultural communication and its conceptual foundations. The
book offers readers with a contemporary insight into the
intercultural competence phenomenon and highlights the basis for
its experience-based inquiry, assessment and development. A
distinctive feature of Intercultural Competence in Organizations is
its comprehensive coverage of the intercultural competence
framework from both communication and organizational behavior
perspectives. This book does not cover traditional areas of
international business, international management, global management
strategy and policy and cross-cultural comparative management, but
focuses on theoretical foundations of intercultural competence and
intercultural competence research and practice. The author
describes the complex nature of intercultural competence in a
straightforward format which helps professionals, practitioners and
students to envision a variety of intercultural situations in which
they may behave competently. Thus, the conceptual acumen of this
title is to understand the premises of intercultural competence,
embrace its theoretical assumptions, see its practical
applicability, and advance individual intercultural competence.
Featuring examples and skill development exercises, this book will
be appealing to professionals, practitioners, students, academics
and policy makers in the field of international business,
management and communication. "Dr. Matveev challenges his readers
to develop their intercultural competence so as to make themselves
more effective, more humane and more socially skilled in a world
that increasingly involves extensive contact across various groups
of people." --from the Foreword by Richard W. Brislin, University
of Hawaii "Dr. Matveev creates an awareness of intercultural
competence by exposing the reader to the theoretical concepts and
practical tools. Business people and academics will use this book
to recognize and leverage the benefits of cultural diversity."
--Berthold Mukuahima, Director of Human Capital, Ohlthaver &
List Group, Namibia "Dr. Matveev reveals how intercultural
competence of professional multicultural teams helps in achieving
corporate competitive advantage and longevity in a challenging
globalized world. This book is very useful for managers, scholars
and students who want to elevate the efficacy of intercultural
relationship in their professional and personal lives." --Srecko
Cebron, Management Board Member, Sava Reinsurance Company, Slovenia
