Description
This edited collection examines key aspects of Japanese multinationals. An introduction argues that the strategies and management practices of Japanese multinationals have their origin in a unique capitalist system which is more efficient and may therefore take over in the long run. Contributors go on to look at how Japanese multinationals are developing their global strategies and how they are managing their local workforces. Topics covered include relations with suppliers, governments and competitors, leadership patterns and business philosophy. The impact of Japanese multinationals on the local economies of host countries, along with the dynamics of strategic alliances, technology transfers and research and development centres are also discussed. International in perspective, this volume provides insights into the problem of how to transfer Japanese practice to Western countries.
