Against the backdrop of deepening China–ASEAN educational cooperation, cross-cultural teaching management has become an important issue in the internationalization of higher education in border regions. Drawing on Cultural Integration and Synergy Theory, this study adopts a mixed-methods approach to explore the key influencing factors and operational mechanisms of cross-cultural teaching management in Guangxi universities. Data were collected from 238 teachers across three types of universities in Guangxi using stratified cluster sampling. The results indicate that the effectiveness of cross-cultural teaching management is influenced by six core dimensions, among which local context adaptation shows the strongest effect. The synergy mechanism plays a significant mediating role between the core variables and management effectiveness, while inclusive leadership positively moderates the relationship between local context adaptation and the synergy mechanism. In addition, significant perceptual differences exist among teacher groups with different backgrounds. Based on these findings, this study proposes optimization strategies such as localized teaching resource development and differentiated teacher training. The study provides empirical evidence for improving cross-cultural teaching management in Guangxi universities and offers insights for the internationalization of higher education in multi-ethnic border regions under the China–ASEAN cooperation framework.
