1. Instructions
As an international manager, your effectiveness can be greatly
influenced by your understanding of cultural differences and
their impact on staff. Hofstede’s Model of National Culture and
Project GLOBE details dimensions that help managers identify
cultural differences within countries. Write a one-page
reflection paper about how this research has increased your
understanding of different cultures and how you would use this
understanding if managing staff who would be taking on
expatriate assignments. If outside sources are used, please
adhere to APA style when creating citations and references for
this assignment. APA formatting, however, is not necessary.
