Abstract
Research has shown that high levels of international tolerance, measurable by a worldmindedness scale, are a likely and valuable trait for international managers. Demographic and educational influences on world-minded attitudes of business students at a major Canadian university were studied to determine if they are useful in identifying students with appropriate attitudes for work in international business and/or students who need training to work in international business. Language training, travel-residence abroad, and university-level business studies did not seem to contribute to the development of high worldminded attitudes among students.
