Book Business Practices in Southeast Asia

Download or read book Business Practices in Southeast Asia written by Scott A. Hipsher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-04 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an international business study of Theravada Buddhist Southeast Asia. Using a cross-disciplinary approach, the book examines business practices within a political, cultural, economic and religious context. It highlights those cultural and historical ties of the region which are shared because of a common religion. In analysing business environments, economics and government practices across the region, the book provides a deeper understanding of the influence of cultural values on work practices in Southeast Asia. The author first offers an overview of the history of the region and the nature and guiding principles of Theravada Buddhism. The next sections of the book present the history and the business and economic environment of the four countries in Southeast Asia, along with some relevant case studies of Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar/Burma and Thailand. The book analyses business strategies and practices, management and marketing issues as well as the characteristics of companies. The last part considers the political environment of the four countries and hints at future trends and developments. The book offers a framework for working in the region, and provides valuable insights into this unique business environment, which is significantly different from the Western context. Filling a gap in existing literature, this book provides an accessible study of actual business practices in Southeast Asia.

Book The Process of Internationalization in Emerging SMEs and Emerging Economies

Download or read book The Process of Internationalization in Emerging SMEs and Emerging Economies written by Hamid Etemad and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the fourth volume in the McGill International Entrepreneurship Series, brings together 27 top scholars to explore the structural complexities, evolving relations and dynamic forces that are shaping a new system of multi-polar, multi-level international business relations. It examines entrepreneurial efforts and relations in different national and corporate cultures, each embedded in and also constrained by country-specific socio-economic structures and each vying for consumer attentions in competitive global markets. The new millennia has experienced much rapid change, much of it implicit, intangible and not covered by the headlines of the popular press. The bipolar business system of the 20th century that prioritized the relationship between firms and consumers of developed countries is giving way to an emerging multi-polar and multi-level international system that considers consumers and companies in developing economies as well. In this book, scholars from around the world analyze the nascent architecture and relations in this quickly evolving system. They explore the structural complexities, evolving relations, and dynamic forces that are shaping and re-shaping the new system and examine entrepreneurial efforts and relations that cement its structure. The chapters in this volume portray the operating conditions of firms across 14 emerging country environments and industries ranging from basic foods and information technology to complex business processes. Students and professors of international business, entrepreneurship, marketing and management studies will find this volume an indispensable addition to the literature.

Book Entrepreneurial Development and Innovation in Family Businesses and SMEs

Download or read book Entrepreneurial Development and Innovation in Family Businesses and SMEs written by Masouras, Andreas and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-06-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entrepreneurship is very important for both entrepreneurs and economic development. It helps boost innovation and competitiveness in every country and facilitates the creation of new jobs and new opportunities, especially for family businesses and small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

Featuring a wide range of topics such as women entrepreneurship, internationalization, and organizational learning, this book is ideal for researchers, policymakers, entrepreneurs, executives, managers, academicians, and students.

Book Understanding Family Owned Business Groups

Download or read book Understanding Family Owned Business Groups written by Manlio Del Giudice and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-09 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the increasing prominence of family-owned business groups and their potential to influence growth and development in the global economy. Family businesses are not necessarily converging towards unitary models of corporate governance or organizational designs, but remain heterogeneous in a global economy. Empirical evidence on the developmental effects of family-owned business groups is fragmented and inconclusive: are there tangible differences between family-owned business groups in emerging economies and developed countries? Are there important variations across and between industries? How have geopolitical circumstances shaped their activities? In this book, the author seeks alternative, pluralistic, and cross-disciplinary approaches through economic, management, and organizational perspectives. This book provides readers with a core understanding of how both corporate governance and business strategy are shaped by the institutional frameworks of markets, as well as knowledge into how institutional context shapes the governance and strategies of family business groups. It is an invaluable reference tool for scholars and students in the social sciences, as well as professionals involved in strategic management issues within a knowledge management context.

Book Internationalism Process Behaviour of Thai SMEs

Download or read book Internationalism Process Behaviour of Thai SMEs written by Khongphu Nimannandh and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research examines the influence of cultural dissimilarity on the internationalisation process behaviour of indigenous Thai SMEs, focusing on the impact of culturally-derived risk perception on the way in which these firms selected their markets, their choice of entry mode, their pace of initial internationalisation, and the nature of their subsequent international expansion and development. The overarching aim of this study is to explore the applicability of internationalization process theory (developed primarily in the Anglo-European context) in the Thai societal/business context, and in to examine in particular how far any differences observed in the internationalisation process behaviour of Thai SMES are due to riskrelated perceptual variations. In pursuit of this objective an exploratory, interpretive methodology is pursued, using predominantly qualitative techniques for data collection and analysis sourced from eight SMEs. In-depth semi-structured interviews are adopted as the major means of data collection complement with observation, diary notes, and documentation from various secondary sources. There are a number of key findings from this research. Firstly, the examined Thai SMEs exhibit demonstrably differing patterns of internationalisation process behaviour from existing internationalisation process theories focused in open, global, primarily the Western or Anglo-European-based context, particularly USA, Sweden, Denmark, and Australia. Secondly, differing risk perception levels among my sample of SME managers/owners appears to affect significantly - specifically, inhibit - their internationalisation process behaviour, most obviously in their lack of progression (either to date or intended) to modes of market involvement/commitment beyond that of exporting. At the individual level there were also variations in risk-related behaviour among my sample managers - and these were found to affect their internationalisation process behaviour more indirectly, specifically as applied to their perceived lack of resource levels as well as their perceived lack of knowledge/understanding. In serving to identify and explicate these important factors this study contributes to the sparse but growing body of work which questions the cross-cultural applicability of existing internationalisation process models, particularly for the burgeoning cohort of SMEs not only in Thailand but right across the emerging Asian continent.

Book Motivating SMEs to Cooperate and Internationalize

Download or read book Motivating SMEs to Cooperate and Internationalize written by George Tesar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in generally expanding the understanding of small and medium-sized enterprises, especially understanding their strategies and operations to enter international markets, is growing rapidly among researchers and academics globally. Government officials, regional and economic specialists, and international trade advisers are directly involved in assisting small and medium-sized enterprises in developing their international marketing expertise. Motivating SMEs to Cooperate and Internationalize consists of research studies, cases, and experiences obtained by researchers and academics from managers of small and medium-sized enterprises in Northern Europe as they worked closely with managers on issues and problems leading to internationalization of enterprises. This book will map not only the attempts of small and medium-sized enterprises in Northern Europe to enter foreign markets, but also to understand how researchers and academics can help small and medium-sized Northern European enterprisers achieve their objectives. This compilation of approaches, perspectives, and experiences will serve as a resource tool for researchers and academics active in international management training programs worldwide and help illustrate how to close the gap between publishing results of their findings and efforts to disseminate their findings among managers of small and medium-sized enterprises in their domains. This book is the first attempt to integrate results of research studies and practices as an illustration of how knowledge of small and medium-sized enterprises has evolved since the 1980s with the contributions of individual researchers and academics in Northern Europe. It will be of relevance to academics and researchers interested in working closely with small and medium-sized enterprises to meet their goals in entering international markets.

Book The Routledge Companion to International Management Education

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to International Management Education written by Denise Tsang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crises and scandals in the world of international management have brought a new spotlight onto how the subject is taught, studied and understood. There has been a plethora of literature on international management, but a lack of focus on how international management education (IME) can be shaped to respond to existing and future global business challenges. The Routledge Companion to International Management Education gathers together contributors from academia, industry and university administration involved in IME, to: introduce the domain of IME; describe the emerging state in new geographical areas; discuss the major issues and debates revolving around IME; explore the linkage of technology and international management, and shed light on the future of IME. The diverse background of the contributors provides a global perspective that challenges the dominant Anglo-American view, with up-to-date specific insights originating from their indigenous view points, which has often been neglected and inadequately covered. The volume answers important questions, such as: Do we need a vision in IME? What is the current state of IME? How has IME grown in emerging market segments? What roles does technology play in its recent development? The volume provides thought-provoking reading for educators, administrators, policy makers, human resources professionals and researchers. It will also give future international management students a glimpse of IME from a global inside-out perspective.

Book Asian Family Businesses

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy is predominantly driven by family businesses that provide the largest source of long-term employment in most countries. In the Asian region, family members amongst the 60% of large corporations own a significant share of the equity and can influence key decisions.

This book presents a collection of cases that addresses three key challenges faced in many of the family enterprises in Asia; Succession, Governance and Innovation. The narration of the cases also offers reader tips about good practices among the Asian families such as effective family governance mechanism, development of innovation and entrepreneurial mindsets across generations, importance of family culture. This case book is essential reading for anyone interested in addressing the needs of business families in the region.
