By understanding the fundamental principles of cross-cultural interactions, practicing mindfulness, and developing adaptive behavioral skills, managers can become culturally intelligent and effective across a wide range of cross-cultural situations. The cultural intelligence that this book helps to develop is an essential attribute for managers in the globalized business environment of the 21st century.
