Visiting Professor gives guest seminar
Date: 11/12/14
HRM visiting professor Alan Fish gave London Guildhall Faculty of Business & Law staff and PhD research students an illuminating talk into his current research on the issue of managing across cultures.
Alan highlighted that the concepts of global integration versus local responsiveness are not incompatible as is so frequently portrayed in the literature. The talk covered his research into cultural mutuality, talent management and autotelic mindset. Alan set out a fascinating model of inter-cultural success based around not only having the talent to work effectively abroad but also the ability to deploy the correct mindset to operate in different cultures.
