Multinationals and Cross-Cultural Management (eBook, ePUB)

The Transfer of Knowledge within Multinational Corporations

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines cross-cultural management within multinational enterprises (MNEs), focusing in particular on how cultural differences influence the transfer of knowledge between different units within individual corporations. It argues that improving cross-cultural management in international business should focus less on upgrading technology, and more on the capabilities and beliefs of individual employees.
