* Provides clarity to the confusing the field of business
enterprise; * Draws on theories, concepts and models from the
established business great and good; * Contains international case
studies to illustrate and examine globalisation. For the first time
in history, more than half of the world's businesses are small,
however, the technological revolution has meant that some small
firms are "born global" i.e. they operate in multiple markets
and/or geographies from the outset. Business enterprises need to
move and adapt quickly, in line with competition and changing
customer tastes. The challenges they face to succeed are
relentless. '''Enterprise and its Business Environment''' offers a
clear and insightful introduction to the world of business
enterprise and the inner workings of the firm. It explores the role
of entrepreneurs, consumers and businesses to understand how their
roles affect the production and allocation of good and services and
provides a solid base from which those new to the study of business
can develop their own interests in relation to the most powerful
economic and entrepreneurial forces shaping the world in which we
live. '''Enterprise and its Business Environment''' is written and
contributed to by a team of expert scholars from Heriot-Watt
University, who teach across the globe. This important text: *
Brings structure to the field of 'business enterprise' by
organizing basic ideas and introducing concepts; * Builds on the
established theories and contributions of the great and good in the
field of management and organization; * Uses international case
studies to examine globalisation and its significance to
organisations. To help support their learning, readers have access
