With the operation oftechnology on a global scale, comes the question of dealing with the complex dynamics of aglobal professional environment where world languages, cultures, educational and technicalsystems meet. This leads to the conclusion that technology and cross-cultural issues areintrinsically entwined in global engineering. What kind of specialized skills do we need to enablethe crossing of different cultures and world systems with ease?
