Cultural synergy

Cultural synergy is a term coined from work by (Nancy Adler )〔Adler, N. J. (1997). "International dimensions of organizational behavior". Cincinnati, Ohio: South-Western College Pub.〕 of McGill University which describes an attempt to bring two or more cultures together to form an organization or environment that is based on combined strengths, concepts and skills. The differences in the world's people are used in such a way that encourages mutual growth by cooperation.〔''Managing Cultural Differences'' By Robert T. Moran, Philip R. Harris, Sarah V. Moran〕
In a more general sense, cultural synergy can be observed in the creation new or reproduced cultural forms that are distinct from the cultures from which those forms are derived.〔Faulconbridge, J.R. and Beaverstock, J.V. (2009). "Globalization: Interconnected worlds". In Clifford, N.J., Holloway, S.L., Rice, S.P., and Valentine, G. (eds.). ''Key Concepts in Geography.'' 2nd ed. Los Angeles: Sage.〕 In either case, cultural synergy may be expected to be more prevalent as globalization takes place., and the concept and/or phrase can be found in discussions of globalization.〔〔Hannerz, U. (1996). ''Transnational Connections''. London: Routledge.〕

The concept goes back in the 1970's in the USA , at a time when the American management was thought to be the one and only business model. This is what is commonly knows as the concept of Ethnocentrism , which some specialist consider to be cause of the general ignorance amongst American managers towards the influence of culture on management. It was only a matter of time (after the postwar economic success of other foregin countries) until American management realised that Ethnocentrism cand have negative consequences and started to incorporate different approaches for their management.
Moreover, the flow of immigrants coming to work in the USA contributed to the change of conductincg management, as the managers started to consider Cultural Pluralism , a completely different view from what they were used to have, known as the "melting-pot", which was based on forcing the immigrant workforce to adapt to the American culture.〔Adler, N.J (1980). "Cultural Synergy : The Management of Cross-Cultural Organizations" Published in W.Warner Burke and Leonard D.Goodstein (eds.), "Trends and Issues in OD : Current Theory and Practice". San Diego, California : University Associates, 1980: pp. 163-184〕
