Produktbeschreibung
Using inductive qualitative research methods this work explores how young Vietnamese university graduates experience their work in the context of intercultural work environments characteristic of International Non-Government Organisations which have been established as a central aspect of globalisation in post DoiMoi Vietnam. The work engages with the literature on graduate attributes and extend the prevailing research agenda by drawing on theoretical perspectives on intercultural competent and agency as found in the work of scholars such as Bochner and Bourdieu. Data were obtained from indepth interviews, conducted in two phases, with 19 young graduates working in INGOs in Vietnam, 8 INGO senior managers and 8 University teachers. The analysis should help shed some light on how young graduates become strategic and intercultural competent in this new world of work, and should be especially useful to professionals in work skill fields, or anyone else who may be considering tuning university education to graduates' employability. This book, therefore, suggests that providing greater opportunity for students to participate in open, intercultural contexts of learning is essential.
