Abstract

My company, REN, is a small company headquartered in Copenhagen. It is a new Japanese owned event company. It employs 50 people. The company has experienced problems with team building during its previous events because of the multinational nature of the teams. The cultural factor had not been well anticipated which can now lead to the failure of the development of REN. For a new event, it has planned to have a team of 11 working on the event. The manager is Japanese. The majority of the team is Dutch, the rest are Japanese. For this new event, the company wants to solve the problem in order to make the company more efficient. This report has objectives to provide some recommendations about the team building policy in a cross cultural context which have to be adopted by REN to avoid team building problems and make its teams more efficient.
