ORG 7096 - Organizational Culture and Cross-Cultural Management
This course provides the context to understand organizations from a cultural perspective. As human systems, organizations develop cultures reflective of the diverse people who work within them and the communities they serve. Our ability to create environments where people thrive within the complexity of cultural differences is predicated on our understanding and appreciation of those differences. Using the work of Edgar Schein, Geert Hofstede, Fons Trompenaars, Angeles Arrien, Mikhail Gorbachev and others, students learn about culture from the texts and from experiential assignments that engage them in reflection on their own cultural influences, belief systems, and organizational experiences. Through assessing an organizational culture and interviewing leaders about cross-cultural management challenges and practices, students learn how to create the conditions that support organizational cultures that thrive on diversity. 3 credit(s)
