Management style varies according to company’s culture and staff. Managers need to have certain knowledge in order to develop a multicultural thinking and to increase the business efficiency.

There is a process of constant learning, not only by the manager but also by the whole organisation, as the global environment of today asks for a multidimensional in order to successfully manage a multicultural workforce.

The world is moving very fast towards a global economy. Competition between companies has exceeded national boundaries. Today, labour force is easier moved from one country to another. The European Union, for example, transforms Europe into an integrated buying and selling block which will compete as a major economic player. However, people still are the key asset for every company. The workforce of today is better educated and there is a continuous need for improvement and personal development. The importance of employees' competences increases generally.

The roles of the manager were forced to change in order to adapt to cultural issues. It is essential to understand the differences between economies and mainly between the multicultural workforces. Competences and leadership styles have been transformed. In this paper, we look into what kind of competences underlies successful managerial performance.

In the global environment, the complexity to specify competences for each job and for each region of the globe, makes it impossible not to rely on core competences in the selection of managers.

As the importance of managerial competences has increased, global managers are expected to go through a constant process of learning and development. Nowadays the researchers find out that many different approaches to managerial competences are necessary to be a successful multicultural manager. Competences were the ability to put into non-routine cognitive intelligent actions. We take out 3 important points as competences in managing a multicultural workforce. First, and probably the most important one, is the possession of interaction skills across cultures, followed by learning and communication elements.

Usually the manager in a multinational organization needs to analyze cultural differences between his/her natural culture and the foreign culture. An approach that may be useful is to identify the various dimensions of culture and the cultural differences that could be measured. There are several different types of skills and characteristic essential to successful manage a multicultural workforce. A manager must be able to look at things from diverse perspectives. Different analysis have been conducted in order to find out which main skills are important for a manager of a multicultural workforce group, and provide a framework for competences in managing such workforce. In addition, the researches point out how the various skills and characteristics are linked together.

Managers need to have tolerance for ambiguity to understand the different aspects from their own culture to another. The higher tolerance level of ambiguity, the higher is the understanding of attitudes an
