1: Communication “The feelings, associations, connotations, and nuances of language both influence and are influenced by the culture” (Matsumoto & Juang, 2008, p. 227). Cultural differences exist in how people communicate with each other. You may be familiar with lexicons (what people call themselves and others), pragmatics (how language is used and understood), verbal and non-verbal communication styles; encoding; and decoding. Understanding how cultures communicate is important to effectively communicate within a multicultural environment. For example, imagine if you moved to a state or territory of the Middle East. You knew the language, but you were not aware of the cultural influence on nonverbal behaviors, such as hand gestures and interpersonal space. Would you be able to fit in? For this Discussion, review this week’s Learning Resources. Consider cross-cultural communication. With these thoughts in mind: ------- a brief explanation of the influence of culture on communication. Then explain two ways misunderstandings might occur among cultures with different communication styles. Finally, propose two solutions to enhance cross-cultural communication. Provide specific examples and justify your responses with references to the Learning Resources and current literature. Reference: Matsumoto, D., & Juang, L. (2008). Culture and psychology (4th ed.). Belmont, CA: Thomson Wadsworth. Return to top 2: Interpersonal Relations Consider your present working environment or your most recent workplace. Would you consider it a multicultural environment, and if so, were you able to work effectively with your coworkers? In a multicultural environment, one must learn to work in a group whose members are from both collectivistic and individualistic cultures. The meaning and value placed on conformity and cooperation differs between these cultures, which impact how individuals respond to situations and function within a group setting. In addition, differences may exist in the number and type of groups preferred by an individual. For this Discussion, review this week’s Learning Resources. Consider the group dynamics in individualistic and collectivistic cultures. With these thoughts in mind: ------- a brief description of a problem-solving group situation. Then, explain how group dynamics might differ between an individualistic culture and a collectivistic culture. Include in your description how conformity, cooperation, or group relationships might manifest themselves in different cultures. Justify your response with the Learning Resources and current literature. References · Article: Briley, D. A., Morris, M. W., & Simonson, I. (2005).

INCA Survey Information INCA is an acronym for intercultural competency assessment. The purpose of the INCA survey is to examine your intercultural awareness. Intercultural competence – what does it mean? Intercultural competence enables you to interact both effectively and in a way that is acceptable to others when you are working in a group whose members have different cultural backgrounds. The group may consist of two or more people including yourself. ‘Cultural’ may denote all manner of features, including the values and beliefs you have grown up with, your national, regional and local customs and, in particular, attitudes and practices that affect the way you work. Three strands of cultural competences include: • Openness • Knowledge • Adaptability Openness includes respect for otherness and tolerance of ambiguity. > To be open means to be open to the other and to situations in which something is done differently. You can tolerate your partner as being different and doing things differently. Knowledge includes knowledge discovery as well as empathy. > You not only want to know the ‘hard facts’ about a situation or about a certain culture, but you also want to know, or you know something about, the feelings of the other person. You also know how your interlocutor feels. Adaptability includes behavioral flexibility and communicative awareness. > You are able to adapt your behavior AND your style of communication The INCA survey addresses: · Communicative awareness · Respect for others · Empathy After completing the survey, use the following to determine your cultural awareness level: Respect for Others: basic level Addresses only one culture. Describes the behaviour of one person as negative (e.g. Mr Parker is focused on pursuing his own interests) Criticises one culture (e.g. ‘The Chinese can’t do business’) Sees one attitude towards work as the only correct attitude (e.g. Mr Parker’s attitude ‘business is business’ is correct) Uses negative attributes to describe a person (e.g. ‘Mr Wang is not a good businessman’) Mr Parker should have addressed the importance of the business deal more clearly He should have made threats to leave the country without the deal Respect for Others: intermediate level Mostly addresses one culture, sometimes addresses both Describes the behaviour of both persons as neutral Does not criticise the two cultures involved Sees one attitude towards work as better than the other, but also sees the other attitude Does not use negative attributes for one or both of the persons involved Mr Parker should have been better alert to the other person He didn’t give a satisfactory answer to the question about his family Respect for Others: full level Describes both cultures (e.g. both persons come from different cultural spheres with different but equal rules) Identifies rules from both cultures (e.g. typically direct way of speaking in English vs. typically indirect way of speaking i.

Module 2 - Home DIMENSIONS OF CULTURE Modular Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this module, the student will be able to satisfy the following outcomes: Case Select a setting for your intercultural experience and evaluate its potential for providing a meaningful encounter with the target culture. SLP Measure your personal cultural values and compare your outcome to Hofstede’s dimensions of culture. Discussion Collectively create a multicultural tool kit for leading and motivating a global workforce. Module Overview In Module 1, we considered the role of culture in influencing how people think, feel, act, and believe. Together, these constitute a “worldview” which can vary drastically from culture to culture. Yet leaders are called upon to solve problems and address challenges that span cultural boundaries, and they need to harness the resources of peoples who may view the problems very differently from each other. How to navigate these differences and discover a structure of culture that can help leaders come to mutual understanding is the topic of this module. Drawing on the work of Geert Hofstede and others (2010), we distinguish between personality (individual characteristics that make one person uniquely different from another), human nature (shared characteristics that are common to all members of the species), and culture (learned behaviors that are shared by members of a group or category). The frameworks that are the primary focus of this module concern values, attitudes, and beliefs at the cultural level. That is, we recognize that individuals will differ, but they will also share a system of overarching learned behaviors that are common to all members of that society. The dimensions of culture that are discussed … represent the ways that groups of people within a culture interpret and manage the universal questions faced by all societies as members of the human race. These questions involve such topics as what is the nature of power and authority? What is the responsibility of the individual to the group? Is short term gain more important than long term stability? How do we manage the unexpected and unpredictable? While there may be individual differences in the responses to these questions, there are also larger, broader, shared patterns of response that are shaped by the norms and values of a given society. These are referred to a “cultural dimensions,” and knowledge of these broad patterns can help leaders to anticipate, interpret, and react to practices that may at first seem very odd and illogical. When viewed through the lens of cultural dimensions, strange customs and practices can make perfect sense and can lead to greater cultural intelligence (and effectiveness) on the part of the leader.

THE PURPOSE: Knowledge: After completing this assignment, you will understand: 1) The scope and diversity of psychology as a discipline. 2) How psychologists working from different philosophical and theoretical perspectives make different contributions to our understanding of particular psychological topics. Skills: After completing this assignment, you will be able to: 1) Assess the strengths and weaknesses of various explanations for your topic. 2) Explain how the Integration and/or competition between explanations from various perspectives helps psychology advance our understanding of human behavior and mental processing. YOUR TASK: Your task is to select ONE psychological topic you find particularly interesting. This may be a topic we have covered in the course or a psychological topic we have not covered. You will then examine this topic from three different philosophical or theoretical perspectives within psychology. For example, you could examine your topic from any of the following philosophical perspectives: physiological, behavioral, cognitive, social, humanistic, evolutionary, psychoanalytic, etc). Alternatively, you could opt to examine your topic more specifically using three different theories, which may or may not differ in their philosophical perspectives. For example, imagine that you choose “bullying” as your topic. You could examine how bullying is explained from a biological, behavioral, and social perspective (three different philosophical perspectives). Alternatively, you could choose to examine how three different theories attempt to explain bullying. Two of these theories might be theories from a “social” perspective and one might be a theory from a “biological” perspective. In either case, you must utilize and cite original sources for those perspectives in your analysis/discussion. This means that you must research your topic to find three different explanations for your topic. Your analysis cannot be based on personal opinion alone. Write-up: Your write-up should begin with a general overview of your topic and the reasons why it is particularly interesting or relevant to you. This introduction should be followed by an analysis of your topic from three different philosophical or theoretical perspectives. Your analysis should demonstrate a general understanding of your topic and the fundamental principles used by each philosophical or theoretical perspective to explain that topic (using at least three academic sources outside of your textbook as source material). In addition, you should discuss whether the explanations offered by the different perspectives are complimentary to one another or contradict one another. Finally, your analysis should include your own personal reflection of these perspectives and an informed assessment of what you see as the strengths and weaknesses of each based on your research of them. THE CRITERIA: Review the grading criteria for this .

Case Study 1 Troi, the project manager of a large information systems project, arrives at her office early to get caught up with work before her co-workers and project team arrive. However, as she enters the office she meets Neil, one of her fellow project managers, who also wants to get an early start on the day. Neil has just completed a project overseas. They spend 10 minutes socializing and catching up on personal news. Troi walks to her desk and opens her laptop. She was at her clients site the day before until 7:30 p.m. and has not checked her e-mail or voice mail since 4:30 p.m. the previous day. She has 2 voicemails, 16 e-mails, and 10 posts on her team Slack channel. She spends 15 minutes reviewing her schedule and to do lists for the day before responding to messages that require immediate attention. Troi spends the next 25 minutes going over project reports and preparing for the weekly standup meeting. Her manager -- who just arrived at the office -- interrupts her. They spend 20 minutes discussing the project. He shares a rumor about a potential acquisition hes heard about. She tells him she hasnt heard anything but will keep him posted if she does. The 9:00 a.m. project status meeting starts 15 minutes late because two of the team members have to finish a job for a client. Several people go to the cafeteria to get coffee and doughnuts while others discuss last nights baseball game. The team members arrive, and the remaining 45 minutes of the progress review meeting surface project issues that have to be addressed and assigned for action. After the meeting Troi goes down the hallway to meet with Victoria, another IS project manager. They spend 30 minutes reviewing project assignments, since the two of them share personnel. Victorias project is behind schedule and in need of help. Troi offers to free up some of the teams time to help her get back on track. Troi returns to her office and makes several phone calls and returns several e-mails before walking downstairs to visit with members of her project team. Her intent is to follow up on an issue that had surfaced in the status report meeting. However, her simple, Hi, guys, how are things going? elicits a stream of disgruntled responses. After listening patiently for over 20 minutes, she realizes that among other things several of the clients managers are beginning to request features that were not in the original project scope statement. She tells her people that she will get on this right away. Returning to her office, she tries to call her counterpart, John, at the client firm but is told that he is not expected back from lunch for another hour. At this time, Eddie drops by and says, How about lunch? Eddie works in the finance office and they spend the next half hour in the company cafeteria gossiping about internal politics. She is surprised to hear that Jonah Johnson, the director of systems projects, may join another firm. Jonah has always been a powerful ally. She returns to .

Can leisure be inferior for a person with a "fixed factor" Leontief utility function? This is a utility function such that the person gains satisfaction (utility) from the composite good (C) and Leisure (L) when consumed in equal amounts. That is a utility function such that increasing L holding C constant provides no extra utility, or likewise, increasing C holding L constant provides no additional utility. Prove your answer by drawing the appropriate diagram..

Question 2: 2.1 Discuss the relevance of Herzbergs motivational theory in relation to the case study provided. 2.2 Argue the importance of a contingency approach to leadership within the context of the case. As a junior software developer, Colin Lollback landed his first role in IT with a company that was doing Research and Development for IBM. For Colin, this was a dream come true. The work at Stowe Computing in Sydney, Australia was challenging and cutting edge for the time with a lot of freedom to explore new ideas and concepts. Collin had the opportunity to work alongside some extraordinarily brilliant and resourceful colleagues as well as some of the most talented IBM personnel in a global industry. Everyone was engaged, challenged and motivated. There was roughly 60 employees in the division who were responsible for work on a range of projects such as conceptualising, designing and implemented the Multi-Lingual Messaging System for the IBM mainframe Operating System MVS-ESA. Double-Byte character enablement of IBM Products and some of the work on Kanji-DOS amongst other projects. The IBM development process was onerous and thorough but everyone enjoyed working hard and contributed whatever it took to ensure each project was a success. The working conditions were above average with great coffee (very important!), tea and beverages that often included the quintessential for Australian culture Tim Tams. The coffee room was where everyone gathered to stay connected with colleagues and other projects, sharing ideas, information and experiences. There is a lot to be said for good coffee. Friday afternoons everyone stopped work early for drinks and pizza in the board room. Often there was an informal presentation or informational discussion that went with this, it was the perfect job! Although the salary wasnt anything above average at Stowe, the opportunity for achievement, recognition and feedback was very high. With regular interactions and positive relationships with clients and counterparts from all over the world. The Downfall : Along came the day when an Insurance Company from South Australia bought out the parent business and set its sights on the most profitable division in the company. There was one individual who was made responsible to make as much profit as possible from Collins division. One of the first actions implemented was to cut back on tea, coffee and snacks, followed closely by Friday night drinks. The effect caused was to instantly demoralise and destabilise the work environment and created dissatisfaction within the ranks of the workers and managers. Questions started to be raised about job security as the company policies started to change and a pay freeze was instigated. It didn't take very long before some very key people abandoned the company and along with them went a lot of support from key clients. The new managements response to this was to assign staff to interna.

Approximately 25 million legal immigrants were admitted into the U.S. between 1966 and 2000 (and - since this excludes immigrants who entered the U.S. illegally - this figure understates the extent of immigration in the U.S. during this period). This influx of immigrants substantially altered the education composition of the U.S. workforce. In particular, the resulting percentage increase in high school dropouts in the workforce was much greater than the percentage increase of workers with at least a high school education (Borjas 2008). Provide a graphical representation of the labor market that illustrates the changes in the wage structure that would have likely resulted during the last half of the 20th century..

Apple, a tech giant, has a unique organizational design and leadership model that has significantly contributed to its innovation success. Initially, the company had a conventional structure, divided into business units with their own P&L responsibilities. However, Steve Jobs, upon his return as CEO, restructured the company into a functional organization, combining the different departments into one. This change has been remarkable, as Apple remains a functional organization today, despite its size and complexity. The company operates with no conventional general managers, allowing for more efficient decision-making and better alignment of accountability. This shift from a functional to a multidivisional structure has proven beneficial for companies facing technological change and industry upheaval. Apple's commitment to a functional organization has not remained static, as the importance of artificial intelligence and other new areas has increased. This unique organizational model offers both innovation benefits and leadership challenges, providing valuable insights for individuals and companies seeking to succeed in rapidly changing environments. Apple's primary goal is to create products that enrich people's daily lives, including developing new categories like the iPhone and Apple Watch and continually innovating within those categories. The iPhone camera, for example, has contributed to the photography industry with numerous innovations. Apple relies on a structure that centers on functional expertise, allowing those with the most expertise and experience to have decision rights for that domain. This is because Apple competes in markets with high rates of technological change and disruption, and relies on the judgment and intuition of people with deep knowledge of the technologies responsible for disruption. Apple's commitment to offering the best possible products is undercut if short-term profit and cost targets are the overriding criteria for judging investments and leaders. In a functional organization, individual and team reputations act as a control mechanism in placing bets, ensuring the balance between attention to costs and the value added to the user experience. Apple's organizational structure is based on Steve Jobs' concept of "structure follows strategy," which aligns expertise with decision rights. Since then, Apple's managers have been expected to possess three key leadership characteristics: deep expertise, immersion in the details of their functions, and a willingness to collaboratively debate other functions during collective decision- making. Deep expertise is a key characteristic of Apple, as it allows managers to meaningfully engage in all work within their individual functions. This approach cascades down all levels of the organization through areas of ever-increasing specialization. Apple's leaders believe that world- class talent wants to work for and with other world-class talent in a specialty. Immersion in the.

Amaani Lyle, an African American woman, took a job as a script writers' assistant at Warner Brothers Television Productions. She worked for the writers of Friends, a popular, adult-oriented television series. One of her essential job duties was to type detailed notes for the scriptwriters during brain-storming sessions in which they discussed jokes, dialogue, and story lines. The writers then combed through Lyles notes after the meetings for script material. During the meetings, the three male scriptwriters told lewd and vulgar jokes and made sexually explicit comments and gestures. They often talked about their personal sexual experiences and fantasies, and some of these conversations were later used in episodes of Friends. During the meetings, Lyle never complained that she found the writers conduct offensive. After four months, Lyle was fired because she could not type fast enough to keep up with the writers conversations during the meetings. She filed a suit against Warner Brothers alleging sexual harassment and claiming that her termination was based on racial discrimination. Using the information presented in the chapter, answer the following questions. 1. Would Lyles claim of racial discrimination be for intentional (disparate-treatment) or unintentional (disparate-impact) discrimination? Explain. 2. Can Lyle establish a prima facie case of racial discrimination? Why or why not? 3. When she was hired, Lyle was told that typing speed was extremely important to her position. At the time, she maintained that she could type eighty words per minute, so she was not given a typing test. It later turned out that Lyle could type only fifty words per minute. What impact might typing speed have on Lyles lawsuit? 4. Lyle's sexual-harassment claim was based on the hostile work environment created by the writers' sexually offensive conduct at meetings that she was required to attend. The writers, however, argued that their behavior was essential to the creative process" of writing Friends, a show that routinely contained sexual innuendos and adult humor.

Amanda, an HR consultant, is conducting an onsite workshop in anti-bias training for Ambrose Inc., a vehicle parts manufacturer. Ambrose was not deluged with complaints about discrimination or limited growth opportunities for any particular group. Company leadership, however, wanted proactively to foster a climate of cultural diversity and inclusion. The CEO commented, We are hiring Amanda as much for prevention of problems as for resolving problems that have taken place. After delivering a 20-minute PowerPoint presentation on the meaning of implicit bias and how it might impact workplace relationships, Amanda gives the eleven workshop participants this assignment: I want each of you, one by one, to tell the group any bias you might possibly have. Nothing you say will be recorded on a hidden video and reported to management. You can therefore be as candid as you want. I want us to all learn what biases might exist at Ambrose. Although they showed visible signs of being nervous, the workshop participants complied with Amandas request. Kurt: Ill go first at the risk of being hated by the other people at this training session. As a sales manager, when I am interviewing a candidate for a sales position and she is a total beauty, I think she might not be so sharp intellectually. I apologize folks, but thats my bias. Cindy: When Im at a physical retail store purchasing something complicated like a smart refrigerator or smart TV receiver, Ill approach an Asian sales associate first, if possible, especially an Indian American or a Chinese Americanbecause my bias is that they are smart and efficient. Eric: If meet a young Black person in our company I am concerned that the person might think I have White privilege because of all the publicity on the topic. So, I am concerned that the Black person might dislike me. I know thats a horrible insult, but Amanda asked us to be totally honest. Marty: A few months ago, I was given the assignment of putting together a mens basketball team to play in an industrial league. My first initiative was to talk to or send texts to African-American or African guys in the company. I figure they have more interest and ability in basketball. I hope that I didnt upset anybody with my comments. Ashley: When I needed technical advice, I never ask anybody in the company over age 50. I assume that if you are not a digital native, you wont be helpful with a difficult technology problem. Bianca: I never thought of myself as biased, but I do have one bias. If I need something done in a hurry, I dont ask an obese person. I think that obese people are lazy. Fred: When Ambrose recently announced that the new CEO had an MBA from Harvard, I was delighted. I figure that the best financial minds have attended elite schools. Emily: Six months ago, I had an opportunity to transfer to one of two departments. I avoided the department headed by a recently divorced middle-aged male because I thought there was a possibility that he would sexual.
