Five hundred fifty-seven students of a Colombian international business (IB) undergraduate program participated in the study. The psychometric properties of the measures were assessed by conducting exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, and by calculating the corresponding reliability coefficients. T-tests and ANOVA analyses were carried out to test the hypotheses of the study. The results of the study suggest that second language proficiency, multicultural team membership, and participation in curricular and extracurricular activities promote the development of the cultural intelligence of undergraduate IB students.Ítem Local Business and International Business: Innovation as a Key Component of the International Strategy of Colombian Firms(Palgrave Macmillan, 2015-01-01) Robledo-Ardila, C.; Universidad EAFIT.

The authors have identified a significant body of research literature characterizing this phenomenon in China, where it is denominated as guanxi, as well as a recent interest of the academy in studying the Arab wasta (i.e., clout or influence). The authors argue that a similar phenomenon occurs in Latin America and identify patterns similar to those of guanxi and wasta in a cultural artifact called compadrazgo. The article offers insight for managers and individuals interested in doing business in Latin America. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
