    GLOBAL BUSINESS MANAGEMENT FOUNDATIONS - 3rd EDITION

    By Leslie P. Willcocks

    View Cart

    Despite the flattening effects of globalization, international business demonstrates huge diversity and complexity. This book is about understanding global business contexts, threats and opportunities, the drivers and nature of globalization, multilateral organizations, and the political, economic, social, technological, and legal differences that regions and countries exhibit. This book addresses how businesses devise strategies that work internationally, in different parts of the globe, plan entry strategies for new markets, and decide on alliances, evolution and growth.

    To compete globally, businesses also need to work hard at the detail of managing – designing structure and organization, devising sourcing and supply chain arrangements, establishing information systems that perform globally, and managing international human resources. In eleven chapters, this book provides a foundation to these subjects based on teaching undergraduate and masters degree courses at the London School of Economics and Political Science, and running executive programmes around the globe over many years.

    PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS THE RECOMMENDED TEXTBOOK FOR THE CURRENT LSE/UL GLOBAL BUSINESS COURSE.
