Building a Global Company

Produktbeschreibung

This book focuses on the dialectics between spatio-organisational gaps and local contexts that characterise cross-border investments. "Interspatial" investments - be it mergers & acquisitions (M&A) or greenfield investments - are usually characterised by what is referred to as "otherness", i.e. organisational and cultural distances of the firms involved in relation to their regional contexts.
