Summary/Abstract: The changes within the organizations, the mutations of the employment market have determined the manifestation of a modern organizational phenomenon, namely the intercultural work teams (IWT). The statement that work teams are a microcosm of 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 represents a challenge for the IWT managers, these being the manifestation of the interaction between people with different values and behaviors. In my opinion if the elements of the cultural (national) dimensions are ignored, by no implementing an intercultural management, this could be an 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.
