"Designed to be readily accessible for students and practitioners alike, this book provides a useful insight for students and allows for comparison and contrast - crucial aspects of many management courses." "Providing an overall examination of management in Western Europe, it begins with an analysis of the debate over management and national culture and reviews the studies that have demonstrated the cultural differences. Using the author's first-hand knowledge and experience, it then goes on to provide an analysis of management in the major countries of Western Europe, considering the background to the style of management in each of these countries in terms of their perceived merits and differences, etc."--BOOK JACKET.
