Summary/Abstract: Multicultural project teams are characterized by higher innovation, creativity and the ability to generate new knowledge, but more difficult to manage. Binational projects, which involve the efforts of team members from two equally represented cultures, are especially complex. Using data from GLOBE study and the data on 175 projects in Russia and 200 projects in India, the author discovers that organizational cultures and national project management systems in two countries are significantly different. Based on the findings, the author suggests tools for analysis of binational projects and measures applicable for Indian-Russian and similar projects to increase effectiveness of project teams.
