Sensitivity to other people, personal experiences

Management is probably the key capacity you should have if you want to be successful in your job. In an international environment, management is all the more complex that besides the human component there is a cultural component you will need to take into account.

Because identity, values, and institutions are different from one country to another, behaviour and work habits vary from one region to the other one and your business relationships are impacted. As a good manager, you will have to take into account this variable. You will not be required to approve or disapprove them but your success will rely on your capacity to identify, understand and assimilate these differences.
