relationship between various cultures. Nowadays top-level management in each organisation has
focused on managing the cross cultures in their daily operations, because it is too important for
removing various conflicts from workplace. Generally, in the businesses, all employees not come

managing these various cultures of employees in order to achieve better outcomes in market

managed cross culture in own workplace, then it can’t effectively maintain good relationship
with its various employees or people.
