Work Together – Powerful Teamwork Story



Powerful teamwork story highlighting the need to work together. Ego is one of the greatest killers of effective teamwork. When someone has ulterior motives, tries to collect all of the credit and is in general more concerned about themselves than the team – it is poisonous.

Hello everyone!! I'm searching for a Manager with international/intercultural experience for a little interview here on facebook or via e-mail!! I'm a German student studying International Business Management at Northumbria University of Newcastle. I'm writing my dissertation about Global Leadership Effectiveness and therefore I'm carrying out some research about cultural competence and skills that a manager needs to lead an international/intercultural team. If you're interested in contributing a little piece to science and willing to share your experiences with me I would highly appreciate it! Of course all your data will be treated confidentially and only used as a basis to answer the research questions in my dissertation. Your pesonal identity will not be revealed. Examples of my questions: How would you describe your general experiences with international/ intercultural work? Have you made any particularly positive or negative experiences? Do you enjoy working with people from other countries? Why? Or why not? What are the challenges and what are the benefits/rewards? Did you by yourself or your company prepare you to work internationally? If yes, how? (for example: workshops, coaching, language course, literature, intercultural training, experience reports from expatriates, etc.) Do you think that there are any areas in intercultural interactions or communication for which one should be prepared for? (like language, background and value system of the other culture, behaviour, conflict resolution, presenting, negotiation style, communication rules etc.) What recommendations do you have for training or development strategies for a person who would like to become an effective leader in international/ intercultural work? ...These were 5 of my 12 questions. If you're interested in participating in my research I will be very thankful for your support and looking forward to an interesting conversation! Best regards!
