内容説明

This volume offers insights into the major international factors and trends affecting companies and how they do business. Peter Lawrence has undertaken several global surveys into management attitudes and values, having interviewed some 200 CEOs and managers. He presents his findings in this text, accompanied by cases, examples and quotes. There is particular emphasis on the US and Europe. Lawrence aims to draw out and examine the key issues, such as: competition and pressure; the joining and unjoining of companies; the new management in action; cultural diversity; relations with employees and customers; the crises of human capital; retail and manufacture; IT; configuration and renewal; and implications for strategy.
