The previous chapters provided a comprehension discussion of theory and practice of multicultural teams. Our aim was to provide a bridge between emerging theory and practice-based knowledge in intellectually challenging and practically engaging and useful ways. It is not necessary to attempt a meta-summary of our previous discussions. However, it is important and useful to offer some overall questions and considerations as the readers proceed with their thinking and practice of multicultural teams.
