Comparison of International Teams
At the end of Chapter 14 in our textbook (Levi and Askay, 2021), there is an activity: Evaluating a Team’s Culture and Cultural Context. The activity is based on the assumption that there are four dimensions where teams vary from culture to culture. Please have a team discussion and analyze your class team with regard to these four variables. Once you come to some conclusionsabout your class team, please have a second discussion about a work team in India.
