“…Similarly, students are stimulated to move out of the classroom to learn anywhere and anytime (Shaik, Makhecha & Gouda, 2020). Moreover, it is found that teachers who used the flipped classroom model improved the sort of key resources they have, experienced reflective group discussions online and shared their practices among each other.…”

At the beginning of 2020, e-learning was not yet valued in the culture of Tunisian university. However, the COVID-19 Pandemic was the cause of the accelerated deployment of e-learning-related devices. Moreover, it seems that the context of health crisis experienced in the world and particularly in Tunisia represents a factor pushing Tunisian university to reduce, or even eliminate, face-to-face courses for precautionary measures. This is likely to allow students to improve their knowledge, especially for those who require great concentration and time for reflection. The paper shows a very different approach with an analysis of the students’ difficulties by focusing on the mistakes made in solving the problems in the case study. The study makes an original contribution to knowledge. It breaks new intellectual ground. Indeed, flipped learning in particular seems to affect students on a psychological level, making them more engaged, more motivated, and better able to self-regulate. This is the intuition of many flipped learning instructors, but intuition is just a hypothesis. Nevertheless, the results indicate that there is a gap as regards the flipped classroom approach.

“…The behavioral factor of cultural capacity refers to the demonstration of verbal and non-verbal abilities during the interaction with people from diverse backgrounds (Ang & Van Dyne, 2015). People with a high degree of behavioral cultural intelligence are very resourceful in intercultural communication (Shaik, Makhecha & Gouda, 2020). Caputo, Ayoko & Amoo (2018) emphasize that in order to adapt to a culturally different environment, it is necessary for an individual to possess appropriate verbal, but also non-verbal competencies such as body language, expression of movement and the like.…”

The aim of the paper is to show the influence of cultural intelligence in the acceptance of foreign brands and how these insights can help multinational companies in shaping and presenting their brands so that they are better accepted in different cultural environments. Cultural intelligence consists of four factors, two of which have been analyzed for the purposes of this paper - the metacognitive and behavioral factors. The metacognitive cultural dimensions are useful for the individual uses to obtain certain knowledge about a culture. Behavioral cultural intelligence represents the ability to adapt an individual to verbal and non-verbal behaviors according to the situation in culturally diverse environments. The results of the empirical research proved a statistically significant positive impact of the behavioral element of cultural intelligence on the acceptance of foreign brands by consumers, while the influence of the metacognitive factor on the acceptance of foreign brands is not statistically significant, which is different from most of the empirical studies conducted so far.

“…VT members with high levels of CQ will not be affected by culture diversity challenges, whether it is a deep level or surface level diversity, which will positively affect decisionmaking processes (Presbitero 2019). A lack of cultural intelligence among team members will lead to misunderstanding, conflict, and reduced trust, which will negatively affect decision-making processes (Shaik et al 2020). Cultural intelligence is defined as "a person's capability for successful adaptation to new cultural settings, that is, for unfamiliar settings attributable to cultural context".…”

The rapid development of information and communication technology (ICT) has resulted in several improvements in diverse aspects of the organizational structures, including the introduction of virtual teams (VTs). Organizations rely on VTs since they bring a lot of benefits, such as the enhancement of organizational performance. However, effective VTs cannot exist without the proper implementation of decision-making processes. There is a lack of scientific research that attempts to understand the factors affecting decision-making processes in VTs. Studies in this area have only been conducted in the United States and Europe. However, such research has not been conducted in the Middle East, where specific scientific solutions are still required to improve the performance of VTs. Therefore, this study is conducted in the Middle East to gain scientific knowledge on this region’s specificity. Thus, the objective of this study is to identify the factors that affect VT decision-making processes. An online survey was used to collect data (Google forms) from companies in the IT industry in UAE, which are engaged in VTs. A literature review, survey methods, and structural equation modeling were used. The results showed that culture intelligence (CQ), transformational leadership (TL), and task conflict have a positive effect on VT decision-making processes, and relationship conflict has a negative impact on VT decision-making processes, which provides the management teams with a guideline on what to concentrate on in the measuring and enhancement of the effectiveness of VT decision making.
