"This book discusses what corporate culture is how it can be assessed, why corporate culture has such a powerful influence on the economic performance of organizations, and how high-performing corporate cultures can be shaped in an international environment. It offers a new conceptual framework for understanding corporate cultures and the impact of national culture patterns on corporate culture. Recent case study material from leading international companies from the U.S. Europe and Asia is used throughout the book."--BOOK JACKET |
