Cross-cultural Challenges and Opportunities across Middle and Top-level Managers in Selected Automotive Firms
Original language description
The rapid internationalization of companies leads international managers to evolve in an international environment without always being prepared. Our article focuses on the vision that global managers have of the challenges and difficulties of their function and the skills and knowledge they consider essential to evolve effectively. We interviewed around thirty managers from the automotive sector, one of the most globalized sectors of the industry. We asked them to describe how they responded to the challenge of their position, how they trained and what they learned. This work allows us to identify the factors that play a role in the daily functioning of global managers, their interactions, and how to deal with them. In reality, global managers are at the center of a system of complex interactions between headquarters, regional entities, and locals. Our paper leads us to question the interest of an approach putting national cultures at the center of the process to define the bases of a subsequent work intended to understand better how organizational cultures manage these interactions.
