There is a fundamental mismatch between the way we organise our senior management teams and the way modern commerce has evolved. Wrapping finesse, technology, rules, bureaucracy, and science around our C-Suite conventions, designed for nineteenth-century businesses, is not nearly enough to meet the challenges of modern business environments and practices. This book is for executives who want to enable their C-Suite, and by extension their organizations, to survive and thrive into the future. It will help them to foresee future challenges and provide suggestions for new working practices at executive level to successfully adapt to those changes. How should executive teams organize themselves, reinvent their roles, and work with stakeholders to evolve and innovate? What is the role of the new C-grade executive - managers, leaders, or something else? Executives and aspiring executives will find new challenges for organizations and ways to deal with them. Forward-thinking business students will find startling ideas and practical tools for viewing business and its activities. What is the next evolution of the executive function in organizations? This book explores how we can predict it, shape it, and succeed in it.

Intercultural competences Cultures are based on concepts such as values, they define how we perceive our world, what is our truth. Author Patrick Janssen explains what culture really is, how it influences our daily life and communication patterns and how most of our miscommunications are based on our cultural values. Intercultural competences explores the ancient origins of cultures and provides guidance on how to understand the differences. Some definitions such as stereotyping and cultural identity are also discussed. The book provides theoretical models that make cultural differences in between countries visible, such as the models of Hofstede and Lewis. The theory is then connected to the real world and how to act on it. The book explains how to look for cultural aspects and where to find pitfalls. Intercultural competences provides a wide range of directly applicable practical competences and models on how to deal with other cultures. In addition, the book provides practical tips and tools for recognizing hidden cultural communication and resolving intercultural conflicts.
