Summary/Abstract: The changes within the organizations, the mutations of the employment market have determined the manifestation of an modern organizational phenomenon, namely the intercultural work teams (IWT). The statement that the work teams are a microcosm of the organization’s high performance, as a whole, induces the idea that the organizations performance, in the present business world context , consists also of the managers capacity to improve the work teams performances. This represent a challenge for the IWT managers, these being the manifestation of the interaction between people with different values and behaviors. I think that if the elements of the cultural (national) dimensions are ignored, by non implementing a intercultural management, this could be a obstacle against obtaining the IWT performance. Ensuing from bibliographical research, I have identified up to now various performance and intercultural 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.
