International cooperation and partnerships became an important asset for VN universities, where in order to facilitate such international cooperation, selecting partners and arranging partnerships are considered as major organizational steps towards the success of the partnership itself. This study aims at investigating the organizational process of international strategy in VN universities through institutional partnerships. Focusing on the ‘mechanisms’ of international partnerships, the study results are based on data collected in earlier work by the author with senior and very senior university managers from four VN civil universities. The results indicate that the mechanisms of international institutional partnerships for each university of the four universities in this study are grouped into the process of partner selecting and the process of arranging partnerships. The study ends up with a model of the organization of international partnerships in universities. When evaluating international partnerships with other universities worldwide, managers can rely on this model as a monitoring model. Researchers in the field are encouraged to test the viability of the study results.

Scenario: Covid-19 has affected all organizations and the world as we have known it no longer exists. Throughout the world, organizations need to relook at the way they operate. Your task is to find a client organization that has to change and help them manage this change. The organization you need to engage with could be the organization you work for, or one in which you are involved in your private capacity or any other organization you know that might need assistance (perhaps even an organization in which a friend or family member works). Engage with the key decision-maker in the organization and obtain input about the challenges, what needs to change, and the consequences of not changing. Find other key stakeholders who can provide more information and engage with them about the challenges and possible solutions. Apply change tools and models and develop a change strategy and plan. Also show how the organization can lead its stakeholders in developing and adopting the strategy for change, how they should plan to implement the chosen change strategy, and how they should deal with resistance.

(CH 7) For this weeks Discussion, I want you to reflect back on your own style of management and how you lead.  If you are not in current management responsibility, you still manage and or understand your distinct style of management.   Even if you are not leading yet, you still motivate people and understand how you do it.   Our distinct style of management hopefully works in our country and culture.   How would you have to modify this style for a different country and culture?  You can pick a general area or a specific country or culture.  As a point of reference, my own management style many years ago, I use to think I was just direct and open.   However, many had told me I was BLUNT and Brutal and times.   Obviously, I modified this and became more relaxed and less threatening.    So use the 3 great videos and the short McKinsey research papers as a foundation.   Tell us about your strengths, and how they would help in motivating cross-cultural teams, and how you might have to modify your style for the area you picked to use in your discussion.   This is a fun discussion, so you don’t have to get all caught up in being hyper-specific.
