Abstract
The phenomenon of cross-cultural collaboration is not new. What is lacking in the literature, however, is a discussion of how health professionals from various cultures, collaborating together, have addressed their patients' health care needs to improve their quality of life. Because of increased interest in global health issues, it seems logical that health professionals from various countries form collaborative partnerships to investigate and address these health issues. Although treatments to health problems are offered, it is not generally communicated in the literature how cross-cultural collaboration played a role in managing the process to solve the problem. By applying the concepts for global managers outlined by P. R. Harris and R. T. Moran (1996), this article describes how the investigators established a successful cross-cultural collaboration for conducting health research between teams in the United States and Russia.
