I also can't think of any cookbook references (books, courses, etc.) Makes me think I ought to make one, but the thought is daunting. One thing that does come to mind is the book "Mr. China" by Tim Clissold. Tells of his business development journey in China (investment banker working to buy and manage factories in China during the 1990's). A can't-put-down book which provides eye-opening learnings to cultures different than oneself's. Re international cultures, I’ve lived ‘overseas’ for more than 1/2 of my 30 year career.

I think any reasonably sized business education organization should have courses that touch on this topic. It's practically a required competence for anyone hoping to do business in the "global village."
