According to Branine (2011), there are five imperatives of managing effectively across cultures:
- Valuing diversity and equality as integral to organizational effectiveness
- Creating a competitive advantage through flexible working practice and family-friendly policies
- Understanding ethical and unethical behaviors in other countries
- Transforming the use of information and communications across borders
- Developing a sense of employee environmental awareness and well-being
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper that discusses in detail one of the imperatives of managing effectively across cultures. Include the following in your paper:
- The complexities of implementation of these distinct moves in the United States and one international labor market, such as England, Germany, Kenya, China, Jamaica West Indies, or the United Arab Emirates
- Compare the levels of progress made in the targeted locales.
- Draw conclusions about possible next steps in promoting progress.
