Objectives and Topics

The work aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of culture and culture management in the 3rd millennium by integrating intercultural know-how with philosophical and scientific insights, establishing a holistic transcultural management paradigm. The primary research question explores how diversity can be transformed from a potential conflict source into a strategic success factor through conscious management.

• Theoretical contextualization of culture and state-of-the-art intercultural knowledge.
• Development of a holistic transcultural management model (DOME).
• Analysis of practical research cases in intercultural business contexts.
• Exploration of culture analysis and cultural healing mechanisms.
• Multi-dimensional approach to an innovative management paradigm.
