New Zealand (NZ) offers an astonishing story regarding its Covid-19
response. This book argues that NZ offers lessons for business and
management actors across various geographical and political
contexts in the world. In this book, we draw attention to problems
and challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic from a functional
management and organisational perspective. In particular,
contributors explore centralised and decentralised decision-making,
the notion of economic growth, well-being on a national level and
on a personal level, and business recovery and how NZ's exporting
and internationalisation strategies have been affected by Covid-19.
The intricate complexity of globalised supply chains, the
consequences of low levels of buffer in optimised outsourcing and
offshoring agreements and the criticality of 'non-critical' labour
for the seamless functioning and organisation of society are also
examined. Finally, the contributors explore the NZ Covid-19
response's geopolitical significance beyond the Pacifica/Oceania
region. In so doing, they illuminate how the NZ experience can
offer insights and learning for business and management in other
countries. This book will be key reading for business and
organisational scholars interested in international business,
internationalization and the geo-political and business
implications of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The current international business environment is characterized by
two contradictory but at times mutually supplementary trends.
Regionalization is part of the process of globalization, but it can
also be a counter force to globalization as stakeholders act to
protect their perceived interests. This book expands the debate on
this interesting topic
This volume deals with "anxieties" in international business and
their managerial ramifications. A key actor in the international
business environment is the multinational enterprise (MNE) and one
can make the case that the organization and politics of the MNE is
a potential pool of anxiety. Anxieties are also manifest from the
perspectives of countries and localities impacted by MNC activities
and investment. All contributions highlight the complexities of the
international business environment or the managerial implication of
such complexity.
The Academy of International Business (UK and Ireland Chapter)
Published in association with the UK and Ireland Chapter of the
Academy of International Business. This book presents the main
trends in International Business, with special emphasis on how
these trends can shape and help propel the field forward. Covering
a variety of timely topics, from AI to the belt and road
initiative, the book enhances our understanding of how and why
technology, funding, policies, managerial decisions, cultural
differences, and changes in subsidiaries can affect businesses that
operate in foreign markets. A valuable resource for scholars and
students in international business, this book provides fresh
perspectives into the changing global business environment.
Volume 20 of "Advances in International Marketing" guest-edited by
Professors Sinkovics and Ghauri, addresses the impact on
international marketing of major trends in the external and
internal environment of the firm: technology-enabled international
marketing research, global account management, procurement and
international supplier networks, internationalization of small and
entrepreneurial firms, outsourcing and offshoring, and reliability
and validity issues for construct measurement. The volume is
organized in four part. Part one presents a selection of papers
that focus on the internationalization process of the firm. Part
two combines studies with a small firm perspective and a focus on
entrepreneurship. In the Part 3 on collaborative relationships,
three studies examine value creation in strategic alliances,
investigate reasons for international joint venture dissolution and
offer a conceptual contribution on diversification - whether
diversification results in a firm's value premium or a firm's value
discount. Part 4 is devoted to methodological advancements. This
section provides excellent examples of methodological challenges
faced by today's scholars and managers alike.
