Rezensionen

"Book explores and describes various dilemmas facing the managers and employees of organisations that operate across national and cultural boundaries. ... authorial bag of academics, practitioners, and cross-cultural specialists, while unusual, may prove to be the book's strength. ... editor puts the cases descriptive information only after a longish explanation of the cases' key issues and problems." (William C. Frederick, wiiliamcfrederick.com, January, 2016)
