Book excerpt: "The Oxford Handbook of Cross-Cultural Organizational Behavior comprises 28 chapters organized in six sections that provide the most recent and compelling evidence that cross-cultural and global perspectives are essential to understanding organizational behavior. Part I of the Handbook begins with a discussion of fundamental theoretical and methodological issues in cross-cultural OB research. Part II focuses on Culture and Organizational Entry, including culture and recruitment and selection, training and development, appraisal and management of performance, and careers across the lifespan. Part III turns to Culture and Individual Behavior in Organizations, focusing on cultural influences on motivation, job attitudes, justice, creativity, deviance, and stress and well-being. Part IV moves to Social Dynamics in Organizations, with chapters on cultural influences on trust, leadership, teams, communication, and conflict and negotiation. Part V examines Culture at the Organizational Level, including culture and social networks, strategic management, and organizational change and development. Part VI turns to the Cross-Cultural Organizational Interface, including culture and consumer behavior, work-family dynamics, global mobility, joint ventures and alliances, multinational enterprises and Global HRM (human resource management), corporate social responsibility and sustainability, and cultural intelligence and global identity. The final chapter analyzes the research-practice interface and gaps within cross-cultural OB. The authors reflect on our seminal theories and empirical discoveries and provide a thoughtful window into the future of research in cross-cultural OB for decades to come. With a science-practitioner model in mind, they also identify key practical insights for managers operating in this brave new globalized world"--
