Research into cross-cultural management has remained amorphous and fragmented for too long. Now, in this volume, pioneers in cross-cultural management review the foundations they have laid for understanding our diversity and for improving professional practice and look to the future for important areas to develop. In so doing, 'Cross-Cultural Management: Foundations and Future' brings clarity and coherence to this burgeoning field, serves as a signpost for future advances, and constitutes a valuable resource for researchers, students, managers, and specialists. Readers can consider the fundamental theories and frameworks of cross-cultural management, identify key issues for future research, and gain further insights into applying cross-cultural management knowledge.
