For this to happen,he suggests the multi-cultural managers exhibitunderstanding oftheir own and others’ cultural influences and limitations.Theyshould also cultivate such skills as toleration of ambiguity,persistenceand patience, as well as assertedness. If a team managerexemplifies suchqualities, then the team as a whole would be betterable to realize theirpotential and achieve theirobjectives.

Q 16: What should teammembers do to fully realize theirpotential?

Q 17: What needs to beconsidered for effective teammanagement?

Q 18: What conclusion can wedraw from what Caseysays?

Extinction is a difficult concept to grasp. It is aneternal concept. Itis not at all like the killing of individuallife forms that can be renewedthrough normal processes ofreproduction. Nor is simply diminishing numbers.Nor is it damagethat can somehow be remedied or for which some substitute canbefound. Nor is it something that only affects our own generation.Nor is it somethingthat could be remedied by some supernaturalpower. It is, rather, an absoluteand final act which there is noremedy on earth or in heaven. A species onceextinct, it’s goneforever. However many generations succeed us in comingcenturies,none of them will ever see this species that we extinguish. Notonlyus we bring about extinction of life on a vast scale. We arealso making theland and the air and sea so toxic that the veryconditions of life are being destroyed.As regard natural resources,not only are the none renewable resources beingused up in a offrenzy of processing, consuming and disposing but we arealsoruining much of our renewable resources. Such as the very solidself on which terrestriallife depends. The change that is takingplace on the earth and in our minds isone of the greatest changesever to take place in human affairs. Perhaps thegreatest, since weare talking about is not simply another historical changeorcultural modification. But it change the geological andbiological as well as psychologicalorder of magnitude.

Google's Plan for World's Biggest Online Library: Philanthropy Or Act of Piracy? In recent years, teams of workers dispatched by Google have been working hard to make digital copies of books. So far, Google has scanned more than 10 million titles from libraries in America and Europe - including half a million volumes held by the Bodleian in Oxford. The exact method it uses is unclear; the company does not allow outsiders to observe the process. Why is Google undertaking such a venture? Why is it even interested in all those out-of-printlibrary books, most of which have been gathering dust on forgotten shelves for decades? Thecompany claims its motives are essentially public-spirited. Its overall mission, after all, is to "organise the world's information", so it would be odd if that information did not include books. The company likes to present itself as having lofty aspirations. "This really isn't about making money. We are doing this for the good of society." As Santiago de la Mora, head of Google Books for Europe, puts it: "By making it possible to search the millions of books that exist today, we hope to expand the frontiers of human knowledge." Dan Clancy, the chief architect of Google Books, does seem genuine in his conviction that thisis primarily a philanthropic (慈善的) exercise. "Google's core business is search and find, soobviously what helps improve Google's search engine is good for Google," he says. "But we havenever built a spreadsheet (电子数据表) outlining the financial benefits of this, and I have neverhad to justify the amount I am spending to the company's founders." It is easy, talking to Clancy and his colleagues, to be swept along by their missionary passion. But Google's book-scanning project is proving controversial. Several opponents have recently emerged, ranging from rival tech giants such as Microsoft and Amazon to small bodies representing authors and publishers across the world. In broad terms, these opponents have levelled two sets of criticisms at Google. First, they have questioned whether the primary responsibility for digitally archiving the world's books should be allowed to fall to a commercial company. In a recent essay in the New
