Explanation:

In putting together an international team of people from different cultures, it is important to note that the various national cultures with which they have been interacting for some time will have shaped how they communicate and view situations.

Some cultures value group work, togetherness and sharing ideas over other cultures which prefer individualism.

Therefore as the group leader or manager, it is important to recognize the cultural characteristics of each group member, and encourage them to socialize and share useful information with the group.
