Cultural Conflict and management of the
cultural conflict is one of the most
complicated task of the project managers.
The abilities of a project manager plays a
huge role in the management of the cultural
conflicts.

Introduction

• Most business organizations have employees
from different cultural. Work ethics and
approach are different in every place of the
world and when overseas employees are
connected then there are chances of cultural
conflicts. Cultural conflicts are also common
between the internal stakeholders of business
organizations such as management team and
external stakeholders such as service
providers or product distributors.
Problem context

 How cultures of project managers may influence
their methods of conflict resolution?
 How does a project manager’s culture affect the
way they name, frame, blame, and try to tame
conflict that arises in their project?
Aim objectives

As stated by Estévez et al. (2015), the role of a project
manager is very much important to deal with the issue of
cultural conflict as well as the management of cultural
conflict. The researchers stated that business loss is
imminent if cultural conflict issues are left unresolved in
business organizations.
According to De Bruijn and Ten Heuvelhof (2018), there
are different categories of cultural conflict in business
organizations and understanding the root cause of the
problem can be useful to restrict the future cultural
conflicts.
As discussed by Qrunig and Qrunig (2016), the abilities
and the cultural of the project managers are very much
important in conflict management.
