Books in the Cross-Cultural Management series

Globalization is forcing people of different cultures to work together. Leading and working as a team is never easy but doing so across cultures is even more challenging. These papers explore the consequences of culture in an international business context.

Explores how the idea of culture is used and exploited by transnational managers to further their own ambitions and their companies strategies for expansion. It thus provides a more complex picture of culture than has previously been presented in business studies.

Adopting a qualitative research framework, this book describes the career experience of professional trainees from non-Western cultures who have chosen to develop their careers in the West. It is concerned with trainee professionals and their search for meaning through the determined and creative pursuit of a cross-cultural career transition.
