Multicultural Management

About

At a time when travel is becoming increasingly easy, effective cross-cultural knowledge, and skills and competence is essential to personal and professional success.

This course takes students through all the aspects necessary to develop intercultural competence. Through classroom learning and activities, and by encouraging them to become “cultural detectives”, the course provides cross-cultural knowledge, raises awareness and develops practical skills to help students develop an “intercultural toolbox” individually tailored for their future multicultural adventures.

While this course takes a “multicultural” approach, it will provide a comprehensive look at the host French culture to allow participants to better understand their immediate study environment.
