Tiivistelmä
As working life is becoming increasingly demanding when it comes to the ability to cope with cultural challenges, people seek new ways to gain intercultural expertise. For higher education students, spending an exchange period abroad has been a popular approach to internationalize their studies and increase cultural awareness. Despite the ever increasing exchange possibilities there are many students who do not have the resources to go abroad for a whole semester. “Promoting Intercultural Management for Working Life in the Baltic Sea Region” is a study course that was created to offer an easily accessible opportunity to experience a multicultural study environment in form of a two-week intensive program.
“Promoting Intercultural Management for Working Life in the Baltic Sea Region – A Five-Year Project. Thoughts, Experiences and Impact” provides a comprehensive overview on how one specific partner consortium of higher education institutions has contributed to international student and teacher mobility and network creation by realizing an intensive program. The included texts by various authors offer a versatile and lively insight to arranging and experiencing intensive programs as well as highlight the importance of Intercultural Management in education and working life. Whether your interests lie in student exchange possibilities, the arranging of multicultural study programs or intercultural management in general, you will gain useful information by taking the time to read the texts in this publication.
