Kurzbeschreibung

The revolutionary study of how the place where we grew up constrains the way we think, feel, and act, updated for today's new realities. The world is a more dangerously divided place today than it was at the end of the Cold War. This despite the spread of free trade and the advent of digital technologies that afford a degree of global connectivity undreamed of by science fiction writers fifty years ago. What is it that continues to drive people apart when cooperation is so clearly in everyone's interest? Are we as a species doomed to perpetual misunderstanding and conflict? Find out in "Cultures and Organizations: Software of the Mind". A veritable atlas of cultural values, it is based on cross-cultural research conducted in seventy countries for more than thirty years. At the same time, it describes a revolutionary theory of cultural relativism and its applications in a range of professions. Fully updated and rewritten for the twenty-first century, this edition: reveals the unexamined rules by which people in different cultures think, feel, and act in business, family, schools, and political organizations; explores how national cultures differ in the key areas of inequality, collectivism versus individualism, assertiveness versus modesty, tolerance for ambiguity, and deferment of gratification; explains how organizational cultures differ from national cultures, and how they can sometimes be managed; explains culture shock, ethnocentrism, stereotyping, differences in language and humor, and other aspects of intercultural dynamics; provides powerful insights for business people, civil servants, physicians, mental health professionals, law enforcement professionals, and others. Geert Hofstede, PhD, is professor emeritus of Organizational Anthropology and International Management at Maastricht University, The Netherlands. Gert Jan Hofstede, PhD, is a professor of Information Systems at Wageningen University and the son of Geert Hofstede.

Synopsis

The revolutionary study of how the place where we grew up constrains the way we think, feel, and act, updated for today's new realities.

What is it that continues to drive people apart when cooperation is so clearly in everyone's interest? Are we as a species doomed to perpetual misunderstanding and conflict?

Format:Taschenbuch
This is a slow read, but take heart, read it all and also read "Corporate Culture and Performance" by Kotter and Haskett. The tools for making your organization run smoother, more efficiently and be more fun to work in are documented here. It is not a cookbook of how-to's. It is the research report into how cultural differences underlay everything you want to accomplish. If you are in the international arena or have a diverse workforce you absolutely need to read this book.

Knowing the differences in cultures and how to use them to everyone advantage is critical to your company's success. Ignore this one at your own peril, because at least one of your competitors is starting to implement the knowledge already. We started using the information by the time I got through the second chapter. Our Executive Coaching business is highly successful in changing corporate culture to produce the maximum benefits and returns with the resources available to top management because we factor in these differences. This book has become an indispensable reference for several of our programs.

If you want to have an international career, you absolutely have to read this book. It can change your way of looking at people in your surroundings. And for those people who want to live elsewhere, I also recommend this book strongly. You have to read it slowly but it will bring you a lot in trying to cope with your new environment. This a brilliant tool for the future. According to Geert Hofstede, every cultural problem that you ever encountered can be turned to your advantage if you are aware and understand them. This book offers vital knowledge in a time of globalisation.

Format:Taschenbuch
Das Buch liest sich gut und ist fuer alle, die einen gewissen Einblick in die Welt der Kulturen erhaschen wollen, geeignet. Es bespricht die Ergebnisse Hofstedte's Studie und seine Erkenntnisse daraus. Dieses Buch gibt einen guten Einblick in die Komplexitaet der Kulturen, woran man denken muss, was man beachten sollte und dergleichen. Fuer alle Fortgeschrittene, die sich nach Hofstedte richten sollten, empfehle ich die Kritiken zu Hofstedtes Studie zu lesen! In diesen zeigt man deutlich die willkuerliche Denkweise, die Hofstedte zumeist vertritt. Vor allem bei dem statistischen Vorgehen ist er sehr frei in seiner Interpretation.
An sich ein gutes Buch zum reinschnuppern, jedoch sollten ernsthafte Kulturwirte und international Agierende zusaetzlich noch andere Buecher lesen.
