I look forward to adopting the fifth edition for my international management courses.'

Essential - and perhaps transformative - roadmap to successfully managing across cultures.' Aida Hajro, University of Leeds, UK 'This thoughtful, comprehensive, and well-structured book explores managerial processes and practices from the standpoint of managers from all regions of the globe. Twelve chapters, organized around three skillsets, dive into issues of utmost importance in today's complex and turbulent international business environment. All centered around intercultural competence, they are a must-read for managers and academics interested in this area of research and teaching.' Snejina Michailova, University of Auckland, New Zealand 'The book is very helpful in preparing for classes and serves as a valuable reference for students. It effectively balances academic insights with real-world examples, which aids in understanding how cultural differences impact management practices globally. The inclusion of case studies adds significant value, helping to contextualize abstract concepts. The writing is clear and accessible, making it suitable for both students and professionals. The breadth of topics covered aligns well with my syllabus, making it easier to propose this textbook as the primary one for my module.'
