Managing Mindsets - Applying the Cultural Advantage in your Business

136 pages ISBN 978-90-8570-682-3

Cultural diversity enriches the business world as well as society. Yet, the cultural advantage does not always arise spontaneously.
Twelve real-life cases show the bumpy road to better understanding culture’s ways.

The cases are presented by ten cross-cultural experts, whose daily work amounts to managing mindsets.
Authors Mijnd Huijser and Danaë Huijser analyse each case, using the highly practical Model of Freedom to interpret cultural behaviour.

Professionals in the international arena, who are involved in change processes, personal growth, conflict resolution, recruitment, social integration or mergers and acquisitions, will benefit from the practitioners’ perspectives in this book.
