This unit explores the complex realities of managing across cultures, and making responsible decisions in international contexts. You will learn to develop a global mindset, analyse cross-cultural differences, and apply disciplinary knowledge to managerial decision-making in multinational organisations. Through case studies, teamwork, and reflective tasks, you will build the skills needed to manage effectively and inclusively in diverse, fast-changing international environments.
