Cross Cultural Management in Campus Life<\/strong><\/p>\n

The classical clich\u00e9 between educators and practitioners is always about: \u201ccan we adopt what we learn in the class to everyday life?\u201d It\u2019s been a lifelong argument between academics and practitioners, leaving the students in the middle.
\nWhen talking about subject like cross cultural management, it\u2019s actually the other way around. Cross cultural is in everyday life. Even when you an Indonesian who never been abroad, when you carefully take a look, there are a lot of cross cultural encounters in our daily life. The challenge is then how to put down what we see and take for granted daily into something academic. Next challenge of course how to refer back what is in theory back to real life. It\u2019s a continuous cycle which can be as interesting as well as tedious.
\nTo make it \u201cgrounded\u201d to real life, here are the list you can do in implementing Cross Cultural Management (CCM) in daily campus life:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Read your text book.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The textbook is the resourceful info about cross culture management. Without reading it, you don\u2019t have a clue what is\u00a0CCM.<\/p>\n

    Reading it is not as easy as it seems. As I said to my students in\u00a0CCM\u00a0class: \u201cthis is the kind of book where you need to read it by the pool and under the tree. Its higher level kind of book. In literature, it\u2019s like reading Rosihan Anwar\u2019s kind of book\u201d. Unfortunately, most of my students don\u2019t know Rosihan Anwar. Too bad So Sad.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Maintain & develop your cultural network<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This can be by simply having lunch with your expatriate friend (if you have one), or asking questions when attending seminar with foreign guest lecturers<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Join exchange program (obviously)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Joining exchange program can be a once-in-a-life-time experience to students. Going abroad, meet different nationalities, cook together with them, go to the local market: all are precious\u00a0CCM\u00a0encounters<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Make a small\u00a0CCM\u00a0research<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Just do it by making your friends as respondent to analyze the culture behavior of your fellow students. We can be very surprise with the result.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Try something unusually cultural<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Such as write an email to a professor abroad regarding a subject relevant to you\u00a0(e.g. thesis) and experience remote\u00a0CCM<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Bring Culture into your class<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              I once asked one of my college friend, a Peruvian who live in Canada as one of my guess teleconference speaker in my\u00a0CCM\u00a0class. He was happy to do it for free for me, despite the 12-hour time difference, and my class enjoyed it.<\/p>\n

              If you are a student: ask your lecturer\u00a0if you can invite one of your pen-friend abroad into\u00a0CCM\u00a0class, in return of additional points<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. Last but not least. Pass the exam<\/strong>, so you are\u00a0CCM- certified<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                 <\/p>\n
