"In times where the human side of corporations becomes more and
more crucial, Gooderham and Nordhaug's book International
Management offers important insights and inspiration to both
multinational companies and students on how companies globalise
their human knowledge and competencies and balance their global and
local responsibilities." Majken Schultz, Professor, Copenhagen
Business School
"We are moving fast into a global world where the managerial
challenge is to generate and transfer knowledge across boundaries.
Gooderham and Nordhaug illuminate the different aspects of this
challenge in terms of structure, competence development, and people
- and not least the ehthical dilemmas for multinational leaders.
Their book provides a holistic yet practical perspective, with well
chosen cases that make this come alive for the reader." Paul
Evans, INSEAD
"This book is about modern management of multinational
corporations. Developing key competences within networks requires
new approaches, and this book provides that. It is particularly
good to see rich, specific company cases that help the reader to
focus on implementation of management practices. The book is
equally important when it comes to developing new, fruitful
concepts that can be applied in real business life. It is an
excellent piece of work." Peter Lorange, IMD,
Switzerland
"Many speak of the linkage between human resources,
competencies, organisational performance and the context
multinational companies operate within. The text by Gooderham and
Nordhaug provides an overview of this. Clearly written, with a
convincing theoretical background and numerous real business cases
and examples, it constitutes an ideal basis for students interested
in the subject of multinationals and their roles in the
contemporary global economic landscape." Wolfgang Mayrhofer,
Wirtschaftsuniversitat Wien
