Description
This work suggests practical ways in which companies can restructure and develop so that they can successfully operate across the barriers on a global scale. Albert Koopman has many years of experience of managing in a particularly difficult multi-cultural work-place - South Africa - first as the managing director of a large building-materials merchant and then as a business consultant to a wide range of companies. His experience and observations on managing strategic change should be of value to anyone managing in a multi-cultural environment or who trades internationally across cultures.
