Details

Provides an in-depth and topical exploration of the large variety of practical problems and unique opportunities in managing human diversity in contemporary cross-cultural and international business settings.

Winner of the Management and Leadership Textbook category at the CMI Management Book of the Year Awards 2013/14

International Management explores management opportunities in encounters across the world between national, organisational, political, professional and social cultures. It is soundly based theoretically and supported with real-life international examples from contemporary events and situations. 

From a historical perspective and a uniquely cross-disciplinary approach, Elizabeth Christopher identifies the major leadership styles that continue to characterise people across regions, nations, communities and organisations, within groups and as individuals. She provides a practical and comprehensive textbook for successful negotiation in a world rich not only in cultural diversity but also in convergence. It is an indispensable guide for students and practitioners to key issues of cross-cultural management.

Elizabeth Christopher holds a PhD from the University of New South Wales. She is both an academic and consultant for cross-cultural leadership and management teaching and training. She is Senior Associate of an international leadership training consultancy in the USA, Christopher, Smith and Associates; an Honorary Associate of Macquarie University, Sydney; and a consultant to Open Universities Australia for online teaching and learning. She presents papers at international conferences, is a reviewer for international journals and has published widely in her field.
