Why Managing across diverse cultures in East Asia We re-examine
in this book the link between culture and management across the
region vis a vis the new economic, political and social landscape
that has appeared over the last decade. We accordingly present a
set of chapters on East Asian cultures, economies, societies and
their management across the board, focusing on countries such as
China, Japan, South Korea, as well as the Overseas Chinese enclaves
of Hong Kong SAR, Macao and Taiwan. The contributors to this edited
book are all specialists in their respective fields; they hail from
a variety of universities and business schools across the world,
located in a wide range of countries in the East and in the West.
The chapters, we believe, reflect a balance between the past and
present, theory and practice, as well as the general and the
particular.

management issues across East Asia, a region that rivals Europe and
North American in economic significance and is still ascending. It

important region to make better sense, Managing Across Diverse

'Having had such unexpected disasters as earthquakes, floods and
financial crises in recent years, we are increasingly dependent on
people-management. Development of human resources, in turn,
requires region-specific and organization-specific strategies. The
present volume edited by Malcolm Warner points the reader to the
secret of success in high-performing economies and firms in East
Asia.' - Yoko Sano, Kaetsu University, Tokyo
