Specifics of managerial communication in an intercultural environment
Srncová, Jaroslava ; Janoušek, Jaromír (advisor) ; Rymeš, Milan (referee) ; Kostroň, Lubomír (referee)
We have decided to get involved into the research project "managerial communication specifics within multicultural environment" due to two reasons. Firstly, this topic has been widely discussed since the 90s boom of foreign investments in the Czech republic, secondly, multicultural compames deal more and more with the issue of communication misunderstandings due to different styles in leading and motivating people. Czech and German cultures have become particularly attractive, though. There are many historical links, we live next to each other and there is a lively business cooperation. Corporate culture represents a large range of individua! aspects that are to be taken into consideration: national culture, communication pattems, manners and cultural habits, history, intercultural relations and key persona! characterics and skills of mangers. We appreciate a kind and open contribution of top managers working within Czech and German companies that were involved into the project. Our research involves three stages: I. 74 managers on middle and top positions from different companies were asked about the most frequent critical situations in intercultural communication. Their resposes were transfered into final questionnaires and cartoon situations and that is why represented key criteria for the next research....

The development of television advertising in terms of its influence on the formation of gender roles - comparative analysis
Trézová, Lucia ; Rymeš, Milan (referee) ; Slaměník, Ivan (referee)
Muži a ženy sa od seba líšia. Inak vyzerajú, inak sa správajú, iné hodnoty a ciele v živote preferujú. Tieto odlišnosti denno-denne vnímame bez toho, aby sme im venovali pozornosť, aby sme sa nad nimi zamýšľali, berieme ich ako samozrejmosť. V našej práci sa preto pozrieme na mužsko-ženské diferencie z odlišného uhla pohľadu, resp. budeme sa snažiť spochybniť a preskúmať niektoré ako "prirodzenosť" prijímané fakty a skutočnosti, týkajúce sa roly muža a roly ženy. Pre tento účel zavedieme termín, prehratý z feministickej psychológie pojem - gender. Vysvetlíme jeho obsah, sposob a účel, pre ktorý vznikol. Objasníme termíny s ním súvisiace - gender rola a gender identita. Je nespochybniteľné, že sposob, akým sú utvárané naše životy, závisí okrem dedičnosti vo veľkej miere od vplyvu prostredia, v ktorom vyrastáme. Tieto vplyvy sa neobmedzujú iba na bezprostredné okolie, kľúčovú rolu hrá spoločnosť, kultúra, do ktorej sa narodíme, ktorej sa stávame členmi. Tá vytvára rámec, na pozadí ktorého prebieha naše včleňovanie sa do nej - naša socializácia. Spoločnosť a jej inštitúcie, kultúrne vzorce správania, spoločenské roly, ktoré predpisuje, vnímame počnúc dňom nášho narodenia. Sprostredkúvajú nám ich spočiatku naši rodičia, neskor vstupujeme do čoraz širších spoločenských vzťahov. Učia nás, čo je správne, čo je...
