This comprehensive exploration by Phani Radhakrishnan, Senior Lecturer in Organizational Behavior, highlights the critical importance of culture in understanding organizational dynamics and behavior. As global economies and political landscapes evolve, managers must navigate complex cultural interactions, especially in contexts of economic interconnectedness, free trade, and privatization. Team-based outsourcing and mergers & acquisitions blur organizational boundaries, increasing competition. This study emphasizes the necessity for leaders to comprehend behavioral and psychological differences in diverse cultural settings to effectively manage people and foster organizational success.
