Working with Cultural Differences: Dealing Effectively with

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brislin, Richard, PUBLISHER: Praeger, Given the internationalization of business, and the increasing need to work effectively with culturally diverse people in one's own country, people are facing new and more common challenges in developing workplace relationships. The challenges include communicating across differences in the use of silence and indirectness, dealing with negative exchanges, or neutral exchanges that one party perceives as negative, making decisions, working through criticisms and disagreements, and interpreting changing workplace dynamics. In this book, Distinguished Professor Richard Brislin shows us that helpful guidelines for everyday intercultural interactions are clear in information that has been gathered across the fields of cross-cultural psychology, organizational behavior and intercultural communication. A psychologist and a professor of management, Brislin uses actual examples he calls critical incidents to illustrate the basic psychological processes that play a part in effective, and ineffective, intercultural relationships across workplaces. The differences they face include individual and collective cultural background, the relative emphasis placed on the importance of status and power, behaviors relative to a culture's social norms, and gender expectations of males and females in the workplace. Insights explained here allow readers understand how they can benefit from, rather than be frustrated by, intercultural experiences, and how to better develop such relations. Short stories throughout the text demonstrate how actual people in business recognized and dealt with intercultural issues, at home and abroad.

Cultural differences

Cultural differences: Seminar paper from the year in the subject Business economics - General, printed single-sided, grade: 1,3, University of applied sciences, Düsseldorf (FOM - Fachhochschule für Oekonomie & Management), course: Internationales Management, 20 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: There is hardly another nation in the world which has changed its picture within the past two or three decades like the People s Republic of China. The former communist regime of Mao Zedong has opened itself to the world since the end of the Cultural Revolution in . This change is most apparent from the economic point of view and also from a social perspective. From on, foreign investors were allowed to enter the country to present their know-how as well as to bring in liquidity. As a consequence, there are constantly more goods manufactured in China for the global market. The progress of the economic trend clearly shows the increase of China s influence on the world market. In the year , China achieved a gross domestic product of CYN billion (about EUR billion) with a population of almost 1.3 billion people. This is an income per capita of CYN (about EUR ). In the year , the income per capita amount was only CYN (about EUR 774). This shows an increase of approximately 55 per cent only within five years. The figure on next page shows the growth of China s GDP within the past 50 years. Today Germany has a population of about 82 million people. In the year , Germany s GDP was located at around EUR billion. These figures account a German s per capita income of about EUR . Clearly, the level of the German income per capita is in absolute much higher. But the increase of Germany s GDP compared to the year before only stands at 0.9 per cent. Previously, Germany s companies reacted to the fast growth in China. In the year , Germany obtained goods at an amount of EUR 175 million. In the year , the value reached EUR 40 billion, which is an increase of 227 times. Since the year , China attained the position of the second leading non-European export partner for Germany.

Image Processing: Dealing with Texture

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Pertrou, Maria / Sevilla, Pedro Garcia, PUBLISHER: John Wiley & Sons, Self-contained text covering practical image processing methods and theory for image texture analysis. Techniques for the analysis of texture in digital images are essential to a range of applications in areas as diverse as robotics, defence, medicine and the geo-sciences. In biological vision, texture is an important cue allowing humans to discriminate objects. This is because the brain is able to decipher important variations in data at scales smaller than those of the viewed objects. In order to deal with texture in digital data, many techniques have been developed by image processing researchers. With a wholly practical approach and many worked examples, "Image Processing: Dealing with Texture" is a comprehensive guide to these techniques, including chapters on mathematical morphology, fractals, Markov random fields, Gabor functions and wavelets. Structured around a series of questions and answers, enabling readers to easily locate information on specific problems, this book also: provides detailed descriptions of methods used to analyse binary as well as grey texture images presents information on two levels: an easy-to-follow narrative explaining the basics, and an advanced, in-depth study of mathematical theorems and concepts looks at 'good' and 'bad' image processing practice, with wrongly designed algorithms illustrating 'what not to do' includes an accompanying website, setting out all algorithms discussed within the text. An ideal self-teaching aid for senior undergraduate and Masters students taking courses in image processing and pattern recognition, this book is also an ideal reference for PhD students, electrical and biomedical engineers, mathematicians, and informatics researchers designing image processing applications.

Dealing with difficult customers in Camden

Sitting beyond high expectations is unreasonable expectations. Customers may exhibit dissatisfaction with the service they have received despite it being of the requisite luxury standard. The luxury Ambassador is able to differentiate between the two, at once able to assess whether the customer's experience has been managed as carefully as it could have been, identifying areas of possible discord, and implementing service recovery where appropriate. On occasion, the service provided to the customer may have been impeccable yet the customer exhibits negative or difficult behaviours for reasons known only to them. Understanding how to approach such situations is imperative, being able to calm irrational or aggressive customers, handling conflicts, and de-escalating fraught and potentially volatile matters ensures prompt resolution for the benefit of all involved, including other luxury customers.

How to Do Things with Cultural Theory

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hills, Matt, PUBLISHER: Hodder Education Publishers, Instead of approaching cultural theory as a set of pronouncements to be learned, this book considers why lecturers, students and cultural producers and consumers outside the University system might all want to theorize what culture is and how it works. Taking its cue from J L Austin's infamous How to Do Things With Words, which argued that language doesn't just reflect the world but is used to achieve things in the world, this book approaches cultural theory as something to be used, performed, adapted, transformed and created in new contexts by its own consumer-producers. How To Do Things With Cultural Theory considers how key theories have been constructed and written, treating theory as a text to be analyzed. What narratives recur across different cultural theories? And what does it mean to construct one's cultural identity as a "theorist"? Addressing the cultural and subcultural identities that "theory" generates and sustains, this book asks what desires, fantasies, ideals and politics drive people to become "cultural theorists." As well as analyzing the production and circulation of theory, this book also tackles the thorny question of how best to read theory. Despite being what lecturers and students spend much of their time doing, the act of reading theory has typically been taken for granted or rendered invisible within cultural theory itself. Buy Now
