Download or read book Mastering the Globalization of Business written by Roger Cartwright and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is designed to provide a basic understanding of the dynamics of globalization and its relevance for all types and sizes of business.

These are areas in which a narrow, national view is becoming increasingly of less value to the student. The book includes questions and case studies to aid understanding.
Download or read book The Dynamics of International Information Systems written by Hans Lehmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The serious difficulties facing the developer of international information systems (i.e. supporting business functions in different countries) are widely known and their propensity to catastrophic failure has been acknowledged among practitioners for quite some time. Despite the often pivotal importance that such systems generally have scholarly research in this field has been surprisingly sparse. Information technology applications with a global range and reach are still largely unstudied and under-explored. Subsequently there is a distinct dearth of theoretical frameworks for dealing with them. After a career in information technology line management I have been involved with multinational enterprises and their information systems for over a decade as a consultant, working in Africa, the UK, continental Europe, North America and Australasia. It was on joining a university in the early nineties that I discovered the near-vacuum in this field of research. When I decided to make international information systems my field of research it became clear that fairly fundamental work needed to be done. I started the project described further on more than 10 years ago. It turned out a fairly difficult, necessarily broad based and, eventually, longitudinal research.
