McKenna, Steve.

Critical perspectives on the globally mobile professional and managerial class. - 1st ed. - 1 online resource (93 pages) - critical perspectives on international business: Volume 11, Issue 2 . - critical perspectives on international business: Volume 11, Issue 2 .

Cover -- Editorial -- Critical perspectives on the globally mobile professional and managerial class -- Perceived mobility of impact: global elites and the bono effect -- Wall Street women: professional saviors of the global economy -- Being and becoming a professional accountant in Canada -- Making critical sense of discriminatory practices in the Canadian workplace -- Showing them the door (nicely): rejection discourses and practices of a global elite.

In this e-book five distinctive and critical contributions draw our attention to a range of issues in relation to a transnational elite and a globally mobile professional and managerial class; each of the contributions deal with important groups and questions that relate to a ‘transnational elite’.Together the papers in this e-book offer a diverse range of investigations of the global elite. Their diversity indicates the breadth of possible ways in which a global elite and globally mobile professionals might be studied and highlights the substantial opportunities that exist to research such groups from a critical perspective. We hope that this e-book stimulates others to further develop critical research agendas on the topic of the global elite, the transnational capitalist class and globally mobile professionals.
