Intercultural Management: A Case-Based Approach to Achieving Complementarity and Synergy

Autor Christoph Barmeyer, Peter Franklin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 mar 2016
This ground breaking textbook looks at the issue of managing across cultures: the difficulties and opportunities it brings and the competencies needed to handle situation and create solutions. Applying a constructive approach, Intercultural Management demonstrates how cultural diversity can be used as a resource to demonstrate synergy and complementarity. Taking a case-based approach, its innovative case studies examine a wide range of topics in international management, helping students to explore theory in the context of real-life situations. Taking the form of an edited collection, it offers a fascinating range of perspectives from a global panel of experts in the discipline.This will be the ideal companion to students taking courses on intercultural, cross-cultural, and international management at undergraduate, postgraduate and MBA level. It will also be valuable reading for organisations seeking to improve their intercultural management strategies.Accompanying online resources for this title can be found at bloomsburyonlineresources.com/intercultural-management. These resources are designed to support teaching and learning when using this textbook and are available at no extra cost.
