Kursbeschreibung:

Industries, professions, business units, governmental bodies and non-profit organizations all have unique Organizational, or so-called "Corporate" Cultures. Where do these cultures originate? Especially in large, multi-national organizations – they have both a strong central culture and flourishing sub-cultures.

CCM2 is a fully interactive, project-based course that challenges students to apply cross-cultural collaboration, project management, and leadership skills in a real-world setting. The seminar is structured around the Global Village Project, a live initiative where students develop and execute an international event from start to finish.

This course goes beyond theoretical discussions and immerses students in real-time problem-solving, decision-making, and teamwork across diverse cultural, generational, and educational backgrounds. The program enhances students’ ability to manage uncertainty, lead diverse teams, and drive successful outcomes in complex, multicultural environments—crucial skills for future professionals in international business and economics.

Through flipped classroom methods, hands-on exercises, and guided project work, students will deepen their cultural intelligence, adaptability, and strategic decision-making abilities, ensuring they are prepared to excel in global business and organizational settings.

The course challenges students to think more deeply about what they have learned in the other international situtions and further develop a better understanding of some central issues in communications, brand management, corporate diversity and post merger collaboration.

Available for the first time to German Universities, students will have the unique opportunity to create their own Individual Behavioral Profile.
