Abstract

The role of international teams in the workplace continues to increase as they assume a more central and standard role in developing, producing, and distributing products and services of all kinds. International cooperation necessitates intercultural cooperation. We highlight this first by describing a case study that exhibits typical challenges and processes in intercultural cooperation. The chapter then turns to investigate how culturally-determined problems that arise from the case can be interpreted from a psychological point of view. Finally, we offer ways of optimizing intercultural cooperation in international teams.
