Résumé
The Cultural Teaming Project is an international, and interactive culture project. Students of different backgrounds work together to discuss the valley Farm case Study. Then, they apply their approach to the case for observing their group interaction, using the Iceberg culture theory. The aim is to show how cultural differences affect first a business situation and also a group working interaction.
Extract:
Understanding diverse cultures is significant if one is be socially astute, sensitive, and effective within complex cultural contexts. The Iceberg culture theory, if used correctly, can prove to be a meaningful tool that can assist in identifying important cultural similarities and differences. It is by building upon these culture theory conclusions that one can determine the existing cultural challenges and in response, the creative methods that one can use to ease the noted cultural distinctions.
