Book excerpt: This book brings together papers presented at the 3rd Conference of Research in Economics and Management (CIREG) held in Morocco in May 2016. With a focus on the challenges of SMEs and innovative solutions, they highlight the contribution of researchers in the fields of business and management, with all their micro and macro-economic aspects. They shed light on the universal scientific vision of the importance of SMEs with answers relevant to their local context and adapted to their specific national situation. The relevance of SME research lies in its heuristic value of analyzing change, rather than in constructing a category, a particularly useful empirical concept. This third volume is focused on marketing and human resources.
Download or read book SME Internationalization Strategies written by Noémie Dominguez and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internationalization is a strategic issue for companies as it is today the central axis for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Market expansion and the growing importance of emerging markets offer new development opportunities for SMEs to use innovative strategies - such as head-deck strategies - to effectively penetrate these markets. This book focuses on understanding these new strategies. Why do SMEs use head-of-bridge strategies in order to internationalize? How do they deploy such strategies abroad? Based on the example of five manufacturing SMEs, which are at different stages of internationalization, this book highlights the main motivations, stages of deployment but also difficulties encountered in this direction. This book is a tool for assessing potential locations and provide managers with a new alternative in terms of internationalization, enabling rapid identification of key stakeholders, adapting their international development plan and anticipating potential pitfalls.

Download or read book Open Internationalization Strategy written by Nadine Tournois and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open internationalization is a concept that brings a new perspective on the process of firm internationalization. As theories of internationalization show, some companies expand abroad only on their own, known as closed internationalization, while others combine their resources with those of other firms or use their networks for facilitating foreign implantation, known as open internationalization. Parallel to the development of the well-known concept of open innovation, open internationalization can be conceived as a meta-model for understanding companies’ expansion abroad. This book gathers a selection of contemporary research works dedicated to open internationalization, either seen as a way to analyze expansion in foreign countries, or as a way to investigate the management of geographically dispersed activities. All the authors of the chapters are researchers specialized in the internationalization field. Readers will benefit from this new lens for understanding, studying or practising international business, from the decision to go abroad to its implementation and its efficiency. Open Internationalization Strategy includes both academic empirical investigations and literature reviews on specific topics, making it valuable to researchers, academics, managers, and students in the fields of business and management history, international business, organizational studies, and economics.

Download or read book Les nouveaux d fis de l internationalisation written by Jean-Louis Amelon and published by De Boeck Supérieur. This book was released on 2010-04-16 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le début de cette décennie 2010 implique de penser l'internationalisation de l'entreprise différemment. L'enjeu est d'intégrer les deux ruptures majeures qui ont conclu les années 2000: la crise économique et la crise écologique. La première a précicpité le basculement Nord-Sud. la Chine sort de cette décennie en tant que leader du commerce mondial, les firmes multinationales des pays émergents ne cessent de conquérir des marchés et rachètent à tour de bras des entreprises du Nord fragilisées. La seconde crise va révolutionner les transports, en exigeant de réduire les distances entre les consommateurs et les producteurs, au point que certains parlent de "déglobalisation". Comment s'adapter à ces changements qui transforment le monde actuel ? L'internationalisation reste plus que jamais une réponse stratégique pertinente pour accroître la performance et lutter dans un univers ultra-concurrentiel. Mais l'appréhension des outils stratégiques traditionnels doit être entièrement à l'aune de ces mutations de l'environnement international. Cet ouvrage propose une telle relecture autour de quatre parties clefs allant des mutations de l'environnement à l'émergence de nouveaux risques, en passant par la réflexion stratégique et les questions cruciales de financement et de performance. Le livre s'adresse autant aux étudiants d'universités ou de business school intéressés par les questions internationales qu'aux professionnels qui souhaitent réactualiser leurs connaissances dans un contexte fortement évolutif.

Book excerpt: Economic Transition and International Business brings together academic experts in International Business and sheds new light on the international phenomenon of transitions in the worldwide economy. It includes both academic investigations as well as in-depth empirical studies. The purpose of the book is to investigate how international transitions reshape the environment, as they reallocate and renew activities, and create new strategies for actors and stakeholders. It provides essential insights into a number of contextual changes that organisations are facing internationally, and is structured around three complementary themes. In the first part, recent economic and financial crises are analysed and presented as revealing transitions for the business world. In the second part, the impact of these transitions is assessed at the level of various key economic players in today’s societies (states, business networks, companies, associations, etc.). In the third part, certain decision-making and managerial transitions are retained to illustrate the new deal linked to international transitions. This book is recommended reading for scholars and students in management and economics, as well as international business managers. They will find insightful information, either theoretical or practical, including various countries impacted by socio-economic transitions.
Download or read book International Labour Law written by Jean-Michel Servais and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-06-21 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one will deny that labour standards comprise a necessary framework for balanced economic and social development. Yet on a global level such balanced development has not occurred, despite the existence of a rigorous body of international labour law that has been active and growing for almost one hundred years. The implementation of this law devolves upon states; yet many states have failed to honour it. If we are to take serious steps toward a remedy for this situation, there is no better place to start than a thorough, well-researched survey and analysis of existing international labour law - its sources, its content, its historical development, and an informed consideration of the barriers to its full effectiveness. This book is exactly such a resource. It provides in-depth interpretation of the crucial International Labour Organisation (ILO) the relationship between international labour law and economic competition standards on industrial relations collective bargaining and dispute settlement procedures protection of trade unions prohibitions on enforced and child labour promotion of equal opportunity and treatment time and rest provisions wage determination and protection occupational health and safety provisions special issues on non-standard forms of employment foreign and migrant workers social security provisions privacy protection The presentation demonstrates that these rules and standards offer invaluable benchmarks to governments, judiciaries, employers, and trade unions. The book’s combination of detailed commentary and an overarching social policy will make it especially valuable to legislators, human resources managers, employers organizations, trade unions, jurists, and academics concerned with the role of work in our globalized social system. This sixth edition of the book by Jean-Michel Servais analyses the potential of those standards in a globalized world, and the necessary evolution. It examines the actual implementation of those rules in the national context, comparing different experiences. It integrates the latest instruments. It examines the most recent public debates on labour regulation (dealing with health and security at work, personal data, minimum wages, social security, strikes, etc.), updates the bibliography and opens some perspectives for the future work of the global institutions.
