Abstract

Provides a comprehensive discussion of the factors that affect international operations. International operations can involve sales and production activities. Companies are often too optimistic about the productivity of international sales, that is, overestimate the development of international markets. Companies are also often too optimistic about the productivity of international production, that is, underestimate the costs and efforts involved. This leads to disappointing results or divestment of international operations.

Abstract

Iran represents a large and emerging economy with a strategic location extending from the Persian Gulf to Central Asia, a huge consumer market, tremendous natural resources, and numerous petrochemical and manufacturing industries, which require heavy investment and development. Understanding the Iranian business environment requires a holistic approach as in Iran society, culture, religion, economy, politics, and family are intimately intertwined. For this reason, the book adopts a broad scope and relies on a wide range of academic and professional resources to bring insights into the Iranian context. It tries to bridge theory and practice by offering a reasonable blend of academic perspective and practical expertise. It aims at offering an analytical, readable, quite comprehensive, and supposedly impartial account. This book consists of 14 chapters organized in two parts. Part 1 touches upon the broader social and historical conditions and moves progressively from the physical geography and current issues to sociopolitical system and geopolitical environment. Part 2 is devoted to more practical topics including Iran's national culture, negotiation and communication styles, economic system, energy market, nonoil sectors, business environment, and consumer behavior. While the chapters are interrelated, they stand fairly distinct from each other and offer the convenience of being consulted separately. This book is a valuable reference for business managers, investors, analysts, policy makers, scholars, students, expatriates, travelers, and all those who are concerned with the Iranian affairs.

Abstract

This textbook presents a new era where the main force for social change, research, education, economic betterment, and even employee happiness is the global enterprise. From the outset it is assumed that today all business is global though often with conflicting priorities and potential civilization clashes. Also, it showcases that we operate in a practically borderless world seeking ideas and talents globally. Therefore, this book aims to brief you on business-related issues ranging from historical matters to the realities of the 21st century, from local cultures to global organizations and from political, legal, and economic topics to accounting, finance, marketing, and management perspectives. It also aims to direct your attention to critical business challenges as well as to the need of corporate governance at all levels. These issues relate to the environment and the structure of the corporation. However, these very issues may result in restating the organizational objectives since the corporate era parallels the roles and the responsibilities that countries had in the past. For that matter wise, prudent, knowledgeable, ethical, philosophically-oriented, and enlightened corporate leaders are needed. From a practical side the material presented is better suited for upperlevel undergraduate, graduate study, and executive education, and it provides a combination of how-to-do matters and philosophical perspectives of a new and challenging era.

Abstract

Interkulturelle Herausforderungen werden in Theorie und Praxis häufig an nationale Zugehörigkeiten geknüpft. Anne Schreiter hinterfragt solche vereinfachten Erklärungsmodelle, indem sie Mitarbeiter_innen sowohl in deutschen Unternehmen in China als auch in chinesischen Unternehmen in Deutschland zu Wort kommen lässt. Ihre Erzählungen verdeutlichen, wie die Betroffenen ihren besonderen Arbeitsalltag meistern und welche Strategien dabei zum Einsatz kommen. Die Studie ist nicht nur für wirtschafts- und sozialwissenschaftliche Forschungen interessant, sondern bietet auch Praktiker_innen einen wertvollen Einblick in komplexe interkulturelle Arbeitswelten. »Eine lesenswerte Studie [...], die mit detaillierten und situationsbezogenen Sezierungen deutsch-chinesischer Interaktionen und insbesondere mit dem Umgang damit glänzen kann. Das Buch ist für wirtschafts- und sozialwissenschaftliche Forschungen interessant und kann Praktikern in deutsch-chinesischen Kontexten wärmstens empfohlen werden.« Constanze Wang, ASIEN, 147 (2018) »Aufgrund des hohen Niveaus ist Schreiters Projekt [...] eine Art Seismograph des wissenschaftlichen Zeitgeistes. Es spiegelt nicht nur das Theoriedefizit des reformierten Kulturbegriffs wieder, sondern lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf die fundamentale Krux aller empirischen Studien im Bereich der interkulturellen Kommunikation.« Zeitschrift für Kultur- und Kollektivwissenschaft, 2/1 (2016) »Dieses Buch enthält einen so wertvollen Reichtum an empirischen Daten, dass man seine Lektüre empfehlen kann.« Horst Jürgen Helle, www.socialnet.de, 18.11.2015 Besprochen in: Asia Bridge, 9 (2015)

Abstract

COMMENT les responsables d'équipes internationales gèrent-ils la diversité des cultures ? Certains négocient des ajustements en maniant l'art subtil de la diplomatie, d'autres recourent à l'autorité hiérarchique, d'autres ne prennent aucune disposition particulière, par souci de ne pas introduire de traitements différenciés selon les cultures. Une recherche réalisée auprès de trois équipes européennes montre que ces stratégies affectent le climat de collaboration et l'efficacité des équipes. Selon les cas, les échanges sont conviviaux ou marqués par des rivalités assorties de stéréotypes négatifs ; les délais d'obtention d'accords sont plus ou moins longs et la coordination des actions plus ou moins précise. Cet ouvrage débouche sur trois approches de la culture qui éclairent chacune une facette de la dynamique des équipes interculturelles de travail. Les pratiques culturelles recouvrent les schémas de conduite appelés à coexister ou à s'ajuster dans une équipe internationale. La notion de culture instrumentalisée explique, par exemple, la revendication de certains acteurs de recourir au dialecte local afin de défendre leur identité collective. Enfin, les contextes culturels d'interprétation permettent de comprendre pourquoi telle procédure jugée sacrée par les uns est régulièrement détournée sans états d'âme par les autres. L'ouvrage dresse également un panorama des pistes qui s'offrent au manager international pour mieux gérer ses équipes. Sont ainsi présentées les stratégies qui privilégient les ajustements interpersonnels et celles qui relèvent des institutions comme la mobilisation d'éventuelles cultures transnationales de métier ou d'entreprise. A travers l'analyse d'expériences concrètes et une synthèse de travaux existants, la recherche présentée contribue à la discipline naissante du management interculturel.
