Book description
Becoming Culture Savvy is the ability to perceive cultural differences, worldviews, and cultural values within an expanded framework - four guiding principles of human interaction. Leaving behind the dualistic dimensions and linear, national approach to cultural orientations, this book's goal is for culture to become an easy, everyday part of our conversations, teams, and organizations. Maureen Rabotin's breakthrough new title looks at the complexity of individuals and organizations and shows that culture is just one of the systems that adds to what makes us unique. By accepting that culture is part of every person, you can stop asking how others leverage cultural differences, but how each of us brings forth our own.
