Today most executives and managers need to have an international business and cross-cultural perspective.

Compiled by a team of experts from around the world, these ready-to-use activities have been tested and refined for a wide variety of international businesses and organizations. They are ideal for both preparing people to work, market, negotiate, and otherwise do business with people in Asia, Latin America, and Europe and to prepare foreign nationals for working in the U.S.
