Abstrakty

Wraz z postępującym procesem globalizacji, coraz większego znaczenia nabiera problematyka zarządzania pracownikami międzynarodowymi. Są to osoby, które mają zostać lub zostały wystane na co najmniej rok do pracy w organizacji leżącej poza granicami ich kraju. W nowym miejscu pracy napotykają oni na szereg trudności związanych z różnicami kulturowymi. Aby je ograniczyć, w praktyce zarządzania wykorzystuje się głównie selekcję zorientowaną na pozyskanie osób posiadających cechy ułatwiające im adaptację kulturową oraz trening międzykultu-rowy. W artykule omówiono problematykę związaną z wykorzystaniem tych dwóch praktyk. W szczególności podjęte będą kwestie dotyczące: właściwości indywidualnych sprzyjających sprawnemu działaniu pracowników międzynarodowych, adaptacji kulturowej, rodzajów treningu międzykulturowego oraz jego metodyki. (abstrakt oryginalny)

EN

In our globalizing world, the matter of international worker management is becoming more and more important. An international worker is a person who is sent to work in an organization that is located abroad, where that person spends at least one year. Such people come up against many problems connected with cultural differences in the new workplace. Management practice mainly uses selection oriented at attracting people with qualities facilitating cultural adaptation and cross-cultural training in order to limit these problems. The article discusses application of these two practices. Specifically, problems relating to individual traits useful in efficient work by international workers, cultural adaptation, and various kinds of cross-cultural training and its methods are described.
