Globalisation In The Post-Bureaucratic Era

Discuss the following statement:

Practices of managing cultures contribute to managing globalisation in the post-bureaucratic era. The world is constantly changing and evolving, failure to manage this change will ultimately lead to degradation. In this essay I will be discussing the management of globalisation in the post-bureaucratic era and how the necessity of the practices of managing cultures is to be applied to the management of globalisation.
