注記

Summary: "We are reminded daily of the globally interconnected business world in which we live. Events on one side of the globe reverberate instantaneously in the other. Globalization has many effects, but one of the most important is the dramatic increase in the opportunity and need to interact with people who are culturally different from us. We are exposed on a daily basis to a wide variety of attitudes, values, beliefs, and assumptions that culturally different individuals hold about appropriate behavior. In order to thrive, and in some cases even to survive, as managers, we must learn to understand and integrate these differences. David Thomas and Kerr Inkson, offer students an authoritative, yet approachable perspective in Introduction to Cross-Cultural Management, 1st Edition"-- Provided by publisher

内容説明

Cross-Cultural Management: An Introduction offers students a hands-on approach to cross-cultural management that they can apply to a wide variety of organizational contexts. Rather than focusing on specific countries, authors David C. Thomas and Kerr Inkson highlight the interactions of people from different cultures in organizational settings to provide students with practical applications of concepts in international management. Real-world examples and case studies help students understand and integrate differences between attitudes, values, beliefs, and assumptions so that they can thrive as managers.
