'What a marvellous contribution to the field! Leung and Tjosvold present the true authorities on the topics. The chapter authors are pioneers and the best of the best scholars in cross-cultural psychological and management research. The book is both a scholarly treatise of the foundational issues in cross-cultural management research as well as a practical guide on managing multinational teams and firms. In this increasingly global world where cross-cultural encounter is a fact of life for all, the book is timely in taking a stock of where we are and in offering future directions to both cross-cultural researchers and multinational managers.'
