This book spells out current governance problems within the chaebol, state reform policies and success and failures of the reforms.

This review of human resources management (HRM) in Asia, draws attention to issues which are substantially different from those which a western trained manager or student would expect. Intra-regional issues are examined and in an unusual approach, topics are organised thematically, rather than by the more typical country-by-country approach.

Examines the influence of culture and tradition on organizational and management practices and how these affect the progress of women in management in Asian economies. This book explores which organizational and management practices are universal, and which are culture specific, and how they affect the advancement of women in the Asian region.
