forces
that have shaped, and are shaping, the business landscape globally. This book will
be an invaluable learning tool and reference text for all students and business managers
grappling with business issues at an international level.
Emeritus Professor Peter Eddey, Faculty of Business and Economics,
Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia
A fascinating examination of management behaviour across the globe, with much to
learn from the huge range of examples of successes and failures
-
and fully supported by
clear and helpful guidance, further reading and notes to enable the reader to maximize
their understanding and knowledge of this important field.
Geoffrey Brown, director of Euclid International Ltd
International Management explores management opportunities in encounters across
the world between national, organizational, political, professional and social cultures. It
is soundly based theoretically and supported with real-life international examples from
contemporary events and situations.
From a historical perspective and using a uniquely cross-disciplinary approach, Elizabeth
Christopher identifies the major leadership styles that continue to characterize people
across regions, nations, communities and organizations, within groups and as individuals.
She provides a practical and comprehensive textbook for successful negotiation in a world
rich not only in cultural diversity but also in convergence. It is an indispensable guide for
students and practitioners to key issues of cross-cultural management.
Elizabeth Christopher holds a PhD from the University of New South Wales. She is both
an academic and consultant for cross-cultural leadership and management teaching and
training. She is Senior Associate of an international leadership training consultancy in the
United States, Christopher, Smith and Associates; an Honorary Associate of Macquarie
University, Sydney; and a consultant to Open Universities Australia for online teaching and
learning. She presents papers at international conferences, is a reviewer for international
journals and has published widely in her field.
