Culture Clash

Belinda Lee, the CEO, has requested that your team investigate and report back to her about a recent dispute between three of her direct reports: the VP of manufacturing, the VP of marketing and the VP of product design.

Belinda has asked you to write a memo with your findings and recommendations for how Phone and Build should handle this situation.Gather information about the cultural factors that are in play in this situation, including Managing in a Global Environment and Cross-Cultural Ethical Business Decision Making. You will need to research cross-cultural differences in decision making and recommend a course of action to the CEO. You should start in the UMUC Library.

Back up your responses with information about relevant differences in cultural expectations in China, South Africa, and the United States. In order to support your views, it will be useful to conduct some additional research on cultural differences and their impact on global business transactions.

Managing in a Global Environment

Managing in a global environment presents particularly difficult challenges as well as the potential for significant rewards. A manager must be acutely aware of all possible cultural, linguistic, legal, and ethical issues when managing a diversified workforce. There are many tools available to the international manager for engaging stakeholders, strategizing, and learning about how different cultures do business.

Cross-Cultural Ethical Business Decision Making

Management in the global arena involves addressing unique and difficult issues of culture and morality. Although general ethical frameworks may help you to assess management decisions in a cross-cultural context, some frameworks exist that are specifically tailored to this purpose. These frameworks provide guidance for situations involving conflicting ethical norms and customs of different cultures within the business context.

How an organization addresses unique situations involving ethics and customs will impact its success in the global arena.
