Description

To understand international joint ventures (IJV) creation and management one has to know how cross-border firms actually decide to form and operate a new company jointly. One has to be there, say volume editors Woodside and Pitts. One must understand IJVs in real life and particularly the interactions among people, their behaviors and decision-making over time. What are the key success factors The micro-managerial details Written by a team of international experts, Creating and Managing International Joint Ventures provides just that perspective, in a blend of theory and application seldom found in the literature. Executives with international development responsibilities and academics researching and teaching international business strategy, management, and marketing will find here a research-based source of information and knowledge that is both thought provoking and immediately applicable.
