| Abstract: | This paper discusses the experience of teaching "Organization behavior" to a group of Eastern European managers, as part of the Australian Prigram for Training Eastern Europe" (APTEE). Communicating across cultures in the classroom or other contexts inevitably requires change in all members of the group involved. It challenges habits, assumptions and everyday taken-for-granteds. This paper is concerned with such challenges. It is sub-titled as "a process of adaptation to change" in order to stress the positive outcomes. The paper will explore both the adaptations and the resistances; the learning and the failure to learn. |
