- Mohamed Branine - Abertay University
Managing Across Cultures introduces the concepts, policies and practices of managing resources in different socio-economic, political and cultural contexts.
This book is structured on a country-by-country basis to allow a closer and more rigorous examination of the factors that influence labor market trends, organization and employment policies and practices in specific countries.
Key Features:
- Includes dedicated chapters on emerging economies in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America
- Provides an understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical implications of different national approaches to management in a clear and coherent style
- Packed with case studies and examples from a wide range of geographical contexts
- Learning features include: learning objectives, tasks, summaries, further reading and revision questions
This is a key text for Cross-Cultural/International Management, International HRM and International Business courses at both advanced undergraduate and graduate level.
A very useful subsidiary text that takes a country by country approach to key management and HR issues with useful insights into the cultural differenes and challenges. It fits well with one of our assessment tasks in an IHRM module on MSc programme and the apporach is different to many texts which take a topic by topic approach.
