Considerations on Performance Management Models of Work Teams in the Context of Globalization

In the context of today ‘s business world the multinational companies use as managerial instruments the intercultural working teams (IWT). The performance management seems to be problematically within this kind of teams. Their members are liable to bring on a large scale different points of view related to proper ways of reward, recognize, estimate as well as train and develop the working team members. IWT are the interaction's expression between people with different values and behaviors, derived from various national and/or organizational cultures. This document is an introduction of an extensive study that is ongoing and aims to clarify if and why the intercultural teams are differently managed as the monocultural teams and what does this difference consist of. Ensuing from bibliographical research, I have identified up to now various performance management models applied to the working teams. Now I will follow how these models could be applied, improved or combined, in the context of intercultural component of working teams.
