    Document from the year 2019 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,3, , language: English, abstract: There is a word for how the world of today works: global. People have friends and e.g. relatives all over the world, they can chat via all those social media platforms and they can - thanks to cheap airlines- visit each other without a problem. When Corona showed up, being global got a new dimension. It was not so easy any more to visit each other, to travel and at least, it was not easy at all to work internationally. Before Corona it was normal to work all over the world and to work with and to work within different cultures. Especially, when doing business with each other, it is important to know how other cultures work and what their habits are. Within Europe the countries and their habits are not too different compared to each other but if one looks e.g. at the Asian countries, well there are differences, sometimes huge differences that make it even more important to know the culture and to be aware of those differences, when working together. This work should compare the way of leading a business in Germany and the way of doing in China. I took those countries because they are very different and in Germany China and its culture is not only seen in a positive way. There are reports about environmental pollution as well as producing fake products of popular brands. But many people also tend to forget that China has only recently opened itself to the world and has made its way quickly up. Are there now differences no one was aware of before? Are the cultures not so far from other as many people think? Are there parts where both countries work the same way? Of course, it is not possible to set up the one, right rule because people themselves are different and so are their characters, their way of living and for doing a scientific research, it is important to be aware of empiric data. During my research and within this work, I concentrated on the "typical" person, not taking the individual into account. I think it is important to understand the other culture and habits to do good businesses with each other and in accordance to the Globe Study, the work is built up in the following way.

    Bestselling author and eminent foreign policy scholar Zbigniew Brzezinski's classic book on American's strategic mission in the modern world.In The Grand Chessboard, renowned geostrategist Zbigniew Brzezinski delivers a brutally honest and provocative vision for American preeminence in the twenty-first century. The task facing the United States, he argues, is to become the sole political arbiter in Eurasian lands and to prevent the emergence of any rival power threatening our material and diplomatic interests. The Eurasian landmass, home to the greatest part of the globe's population, natural resources, and economic activity, is the "grand chessboard" on which America's supremacy will be ratified and challenged in the years to come. In this landmark work of public policy and political science, Brzezinski outlines a groundbreaking and powerful blueprint for America's vital interests in the modern world.In this revised edition, Brzezinski addresses recent global developments including the war in Ukraine, the re-emergence of Russia, and the rise of China.

    Winner of the 2013 Scotiabank Giller Prize. Short-listed for the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize. Selected as an Amazon.ca Best Book and for The Globe's Top 10 Books of 2013. With astonishing range and depth, Scotiabank Giller Prize finalist Lynn Coady gives us nine unforgettable new stories, each one of them grabbing our attention from the first line and resonating long after the last. A young nun charged with talking an anorexic out of her religious fanaticism toys with the thin distance between practicality and blasphemy. A strange bond between a teacher and a schoolgirl takes on ever deeper and stranger shapes as the years progress. A bride-to-be with a penchant for nocturnal bondage can't seem to stop bashing herself up in the light of day. Equally adept at capturing the foibles and obsessions of men and of women, compassionate in her humour yet never missing an opportunity to make her characters squirm, fascinated as much by faithlessness as by faith, Lynn Coady is quite possibly the writer who best captures what it is to be human at this particular moment in our history. ungekürzt.
