Cross-Cultural Innovation - - Bog - Deutscher Universitatsverlag - Plusbog.dk

Cross-Cultural Innovation - - Bog - Deutscher Universitatsverlag - Plusbog.dk

The first idea for the topic of the 8th European Conference on Creativity and Innovation was CROSS-CULTURAL CREATIVITY. It came up from discus- sions with businessmen, politicians and leaders of non profit organisations who agreed that cross-cultural teams are more successful. Especially in a global world the probability for sustainable success will rise if managers are aware of cross-cultural aspects in future problem solutions. Cross-cultural means not only the differences between ethnic, racial or na- tional groups. It is more. Cross-cultural confrontations arise by the differences of genders, educational levels, differences in thinking of diverse companies' departments (e.g. production versus research & development, marketing ver- sus finance), the mix of musicians or styles of painting. However, there is a lot of danger in cross-cultural collaboration: Diversity means different views, opinions, values and objectives easily generating misunderstandings and quarrels possibly ending up with serious conflicts. The conflicts may trigger new approaches and breakthroughs or lead to astate of frozen relations and stagnation. Sensitivity to the values and views of other cultures, open communication and aware leadership are traits helping to capitalize on cross-cultural influences. In further discussions with our friends of the EACI board we changed our mind for the new conference topic to CROSS-CULTURAL INNOVATION.

Cross-Cultural Marketing - Dawn Burton - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Cross-Cultural Marketing - Dawn Burton - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Cross-cultural marketing is an important element of the contemporary business environment. Many conventional accounts of the topic have conflated cross-cultural and cross-national marketing, but in this groundbreaking, new book, Burton argues that these generalizations have little meaning given the extent of multi-culturalism in many societies. Given the importance of new emerging markets in the Far East, Middle East, Asia and Latin America, this book raises important questions about the applicability of existing marketing theory and practice, which was originally developed using the model of Western society. An extensive range of cross-cultural marketing issues is addressed, including: - Cross-cultural consumer behaviour - Cross-cultural management practice - Promotional strategies - Product development - Distribution - Marketing research methods Cross-cultural Marketing offers a new, more complex and sophisticated approach to the important challenges for existing marketing theory and practice and their continued relevance for stakeholders. As such, it is an invaluable text for students of international and cross-cultural marketing, as well as for practitioners who wish to assess new developments in the field.

Cross-Cultural Crisis Negotiations - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Cross-Cultural Crisis Negotiations - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

A comprehensive presentation of cross-cultural crisis negotiation principles and strategies, this book relates established communication models to the practical knowledge and experience of crisis negotiators across international organisations and contexts. Early chapters discuss prominent communication theories and discourse analysis models used to analyse interaction in crisis negotiation case studies. A central theme is the practice of "active listening", highlighting the crucial role of active listening in building rapport. Rapport is a communicational concept deemed essential to successful negotiations but is seldom defined. This book expands upon this concept in depth, providing relevant communication theories that can be applied to understanding the interactional processes in successful crisis negotiations. By presenting perspectives on crisis negotiation by scholars and practitioners engaged in vastly differing contexts, it is a robust guide to developing constructive crisis negotiation strategies in cross-cultural and cross-linguistic situations. An essential read for students and practitioners in crisis negotiation who find themselves working in increasingly cross-linguistic and cross-cultural scenarios.

Cross-Cultural Research Methods - Melvin Ember - Bog - AltaMira Press - Plusbog.dk

But without cross-cultural comparison, we would know nothing of what may be universal or variable across human cultures, or why variation exists. Cross-Cultural Research Methods is an introductory teaching tool that shows students and potential researchers how to describe, compare, and analyze patterns that occur in different cultures, that is, how to form and test anthropological, sociological, psychological, medical, or political hypotheses about cultural variation.

Emergency Cross-sectional Radiology - Rakesh Misra - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Cross-sectional imaging plays an ever-increasing role in the management of the acutely ill patient. There is 24/7 demand for radiologists at all levels of training to interpret complex scans, and alongside this an increased expectation that the requesting physician should be able to recognise important cross-sectional anatomy and pathology in order to expedite patient management. Emergency Cross-sectional Radiology addresses both these expectations. Part I demystifies cross-sectional imaging techniques. Part II describes a wide range of emergency conditions in an easy-to-read bullet point format. High quality images reinforce the findings, making this an invaluable rapid reference in everyday clinical practice. Emergency Cross-sectional Radiology is a practical aide-memoire for emergency medicine physicians, surgeons, acute care physicians and radiologists in everyday reporting or emergency on-call environments.

Cross-cultural Genre Analysis - Danni Yu - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Cross-cultural Genre Analysis - Danni Yu - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This unique monograph provides a theoretical and methodological account on how to do cross-cultural genre analysis with the aids of corpus tools. Cross-cultural genre analysis investigates how discourse communities from different cultural backgrounds use language to realize a particular genre. It can shed light on genre nature as well as cultural specificities. The book suggests five specific approaches in doing cross-cultural genre analysis: Investigating genre context; Approaching genre complexity; Exploring genre nature; Exploring culture specificity; and Focusing on specific communicative functions. Each of these approaches is illustrated and demonstrated in a specific chapter with practical analyses of the genre of CSR reports. Covering linguistic analysis of CSR reports in three languages: Chinese, English and Italian, Yu provides insights into implications for both genre theories and CSR communication practice. By applying the cross-cultural perspective in corporate discourse analysis, her book demonstrates how the approach of cross-cultural genre analysis is fruitful and valuable in providing practical insights into the textual practice of CSR reporting in a globalized context. Moreover, in the final parts of the book, Yu illustrates how cross-cultural genre analysis can be applied in the didactic field of writing, translation and cross-cultural studies. This volume is a valuable reference to scholars of genre analysis, corpus-based studies, cross-cultural studies and corporate communication. Moreover, it is also useful for professionals involved in compiling CSR reports. Armed with the knowledge imparted in this book, the reader should be able to analyze other genres from a cross-cultural perspective. In particular, instructions on how to use specific corpus tools are provided in the appendices, which can give scholars basic technical knowledge to approach the field of cross-cultural genre analysis.

Global Perspectives in Cross-Cultural and Cross-National Consumer Research - Lalita A. Manrai - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Global Perspectives in Cross-Cultural and Cross-National Consumer Research - Lalita A. Manrai - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Global Perspectives in Cross-Cultural and Cross-National Consumer Research deals with several important issues crucial for greater understanding of international and cross-cultural consumer behavior. This understanding in turn can provide international marketers with valuable insights, such as conditions under which globalization may or may not work. The coverage in this book is interdisciplinary in nature, and the chapters discuss several constructs (intermediary variables, processes, and also other environmental influences) related to social, personal, and psychological components or consequences of culture. The book begins with a conceptual model of the effect of culture on consumer behavior, with the components and consequences of the cultural influences clearly identified in terms of social, personal, and psychological factors. The following chapters discuss general issues related to globalization and standardization, present conceptual approaches to propositions relating to multicultural contexts, and address consumer complaining behavior and responses to advertising. There are five chapters on empirical and methodological studies conducted in specific pairs of countries, with data obtained from Canada, Denmark, Japan, Germany, Poland, Romania, and the United States. In presenting readers with new information, Global Perspectives in Cross-Cultural and Cross-National Consumer Research spans these specific topics: - - the nature of cultural influence on consumer behavior - - globalization versus customization of international marketing strategy - - individualism versus collectivism - - right versus left symbolism - - product involvement - - consumer response to information technology - - interdependent versus independent cultures The contributors are well-known scholars in the international/cross-cultural marketing field; their chapters present state-of-the-art developments in this area. The coverage of the material is interdisciplinary in nature and is likely to benefit a broad audience, especially academic researchers in international or cross-cultural consumer research and librarians of research-oriented schools, universities, or organizations.

Cross-Cultural Analysis - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Intended to bridge the gap between the latest methodological developments and cross-cultural research, this interdisciplinary resource presents the latest strategies for analyzing cross-cultural data. Techniques are demonstrated through the use of applications that employ cross-national data sets such as the latest European Social Survey. With an emphasis on the generalized latent variable approach, internationally prominent researchers from a variety of fields explain how the methods work, how to apply them, and how they relate to other methods presented in the book. Syntax and graphical and verbal explanations of the techniques are included. Online resources, available at www.routledge.com/9781138690271, include some of the data sets and syntax commands used in the book. Applications from the behavioral and social sciences that use real data-sets demonstrate: - - The use of samples from 17 countries to validate the resistance to change scale across these nations - - - How to test the cross-national invariance properties of social trust - - - The interplay between social structure, religiosity, values, and social attitudes - - - A comparison of anti-immigrant attitudes and patterns of religious orientations across European countries. The second edition includes six new chapters and two revised ones presenting exciting developments in the literature of cross-cultural analysis including topics such as approximate measurement invariance, alignment optimization, sensitivity analyses, a mixed-methods approach to test for measurement invariance, and a multilevel structural equation modeling approach to explain noninvariance. This book is intended for researchers, practitioners, and advanced students interested in cross-cultural research. Because the applications span a variety of disciplines, the book will appeal to researchers and students in: psychology, political science, sociology, education, marketing and economics, geography, criminology, psychometrics, epidemiology, and public health, as well as those interested in methodology. It is also appropriate for an advanced methods course in cross-cultural analysis.
