Lehrmethoden We require our students to prepare for class, i.e. read the required texts in order to be able to contribute effectively in class. As issues in the field of cross-cultural management are best learned in practice, the course has been designed to be interactive (group work and follow-ups with the rest of the class) and builds on the cross-cultural composition of the students in class. In addition, the course looks at case studies, critical incidents, and role play to stimulate experiental learning and in-class discussion.
