GLOBAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP
CROSS CULTURAL ENCOUNTER PROJECT
Global business managers learn to work with people from other cultural backgrounds. This
assignment requires that you develop a personal relationship with someone from another
cultural background and discuss with them your values and ways of life. You are to (a)
develop a personal relationship by doing activities together, (b) identify similarities and
differences in your behaviors and values, (c) explain these differences in terms of the overall
social structure of their society. Then you should (d) analyze how you reacted to their
behavior and adjusted your own conduct to better interact with people from that background.
Finally, you should (e) identify the entrepreneurs and innovators who are respected in that
society and (f) research business and organizational dealings that bring together people from
these two backgrounds. Your effort to build creatively this relationship and then honestly
assess it as a cross-cultural experience is a critical element of the course.
Choosing a Cross-Cultural Buddy – Students choose buddies for strategic reasons: they
identify a part of the world they would like to learn about, then they meet and develop a
relationship with someone from that background, either in our class, across campus or in the
greater community. University resources can help you find a suitable buddy.
Write a statement describing your cross-cultural encounter following the directions below.
Address each question separately. The completed document should be at least 10 pages in
length, double-spaced, and you are encouraged to make it as long as you like. Write clearly
and succinctly. Papers will be evaluated based on demonstrated quality of thought and
clarity of writing style.

Body of the Paper:
(1) Shared Activities – describe activities you did with your cross-cultural buddy (get
acquainted discussions, social activities, sharing of family photographs, etc.). Mention
cross-cultural experiences you engaged in (e.g. dining at an ethnic restaurant, attending a
foreign film, attending a religious service, touring a museum exhibit, attending an
embassy function, attending a cultural celebration, meeting family members, spending
time with their friends, looking through travel brochures to learn about culture, etc.).
(2) Identified Differences – note similarities and differences between you and your buddy,
in terms of language, behaviors, beliefs and values. Consider differences in traditions
and lifestyles. Examine both family life and economic life. Clothes and appearances are
only skin deep. If differences seem few, find out about other members of their society.
(3) Integrated Patterns – describe how people live and grow in that culture in a way that
explains the differences noted above. Consider historical legends, popular children’s

books, cultural heroes, social habits and shared humor. Refer to the dimensions of
culture, if they are useful in explaining what you have observed.
(4) Discovered Adjustments – summarize how you managed your cross-cultural experience
and took steps to smooth your adjustment. Mention how you worked through differences
and clarified any misunderstandings. Consider how you might work with other people
from this culture in another work context. Suggest ways that people from your culture
might build relationships with people from your buddy’s culture.
(5) Noted Innovators – identify business entrepreneurs and social innovators who are wellregarded in that society. Tell the story of the constructive changes they made and their
path to achievement. Consider what they contributed to the betterment of people – their
customers, members or employees – and to evolving local society. Identify individuals,
companies and/or industries that are the country’s distinctive strengths.
(6) Business Dealings – research business and organizational dealings that bring together
people from your two backgrounds. Cite groups or individuals who deal between the two
countries and describe their experiences. Try to meet people engaged in this business and
get them to talk about their jobs (an office visit would be excellent!!). Examine the
workings of government and the economy in your buddy’s region, and consider how
operations there reflect cultural differences. Contact and learn from the Economic
Attache’s office of that country’s embassy here in Washington.
