Recenzii

'What a marvellous contribution to the field! Leung and Tjosvold present the true authorities on the topics. The chapter authors are pioneers and the best of the best scholars in cross-cultural psychological and management research. The book is both a scholarly treatise of the foundational issues in cross-cultural management research as well as a practical guide on managing multinational teams and firms. In this increasingly global world where cross-cultural encounter is a fact of life for all, the book is timely in taking a stock of where we are and in offering future directions to both cross-cultural researchers and multinational managers.' Professor Anne S. Tsui, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, China ''This book combines scholarly research explaining the impact of diverse cultural values on management with thoughtful advice on how to value and utilize the full capabilities of all people throughout the global organization.' Jeanne M. Brett, Northwestern University, USA 'In this volume, Tjsvold and Leung present a fascinating and provocative look at cross-cultural management issues. The combination of unique perspectives and concrete applications makes this an invaluable resource for academics and practitioners alike. Although there are other books available on this topic, this treatise distinguishes itself by providing a practical approach based on rigorous research and theory.' P. Christopher Earley, London Business School, UK 'At no time in history has the understanding of cross-cultural dynamics been more important. Kwok Leung and Dean Tjosvold's new book comes along at just the right time. Read it; it will increase your understanding and practice of cross-cultural management.' Dr Nancy J. Adler, McGill University, Montreal, Canada

Descriere

Research into cross-cultural management has remained amorphous and fragmented for too long. Now, in this volume, pioneers in cross-cultural management review the foundations they have laid for understanding our diversity and for improving professional practice and look to the future for important areas to develop. In so doing, ’Cross-Cultural Management: Foundations and Future’ brings clarity and coherence to this burgeoning field, serves as a signpost for future advances, and constitutes a valuable resource for researchers, students, managers, and specialists. Readers can consider the fundamental theories and frameworks of cross-cultural management, identify key issues for future research, and gain further insights into applying cross-cultural management knowledge.
