Business Culture and International Management

Itim is the global specialists in national and organizational culture. We can help you to handle the complexities of globalization and internationalization successfully.Recent information indicates that these complexities are still highly underestimated. Research by KPMG, for example, shows that less then 20% of international mergers and acquisitions add value to the organizations involved.

Research by PricewaterhouseCoopers showed that 67% of international managers blame cultural differences for the difficulties they are confronted with working internationally.

With the help of our empirically tested tools itim can help you to handle diversity successfully in countries, organizations and markets.

How to handle diversity:

• Know yourself, your people and your colleagues
• Show respect, but know what to accept and what not to accept
• Create synergy
• Create unity without denying diversity

A short introduction

Itim is one of the leading companies worldwide in the field of management and culture.

Culture is here defined as national culture, regional culture and corporate culture - not as ‘art’. Some of us at itim may dabble in art as amateurs, but we are true professionals only in the field of human behavior, which may be termed an art in itself.
