From the outset it is assumed that today all business is global though often with conflicting priorities and potential civilization clashes. Also, it showcases that we operate in a practically borderless world seeking ideas and talents globally. Therefore, this book aims to brief you on business-related issues ranging from historical matters to the realities of the 21st century, from local cultures to global organizations and from political, legal, and economic topics to accounting, finance, marketing, and management perspectives. It also aims to direct your attention to critical business challenges as well as to the need of corporate governance at all levels. These issues relate to the environment and the structure of the corporation. However, these very issues may result in restating the organizational objectives since the corporate era parallels the roles and the responsibilities that countries had in the past. For that matter wise, prudent, knowledgeable, ethical, philosophically-oriented, and enlightened corporate leaders are needed. From a practical side the material presented is better suited for upperlevel undergraduate, graduate study, and executive education, and it provides a combination of how-to-do matters and philosophical perspectives of a new and challenging era. 000934102 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on April 23, 2014). 000934102 650_0 $$aInternational business enterprises$$xManagement. 000934102 650_0 $$aCorporate governance. 000934102 653__ $$abusiness challenges 000934102 653__ $$abusiness ethics 000934102 653__ $$acorporate governance 000934102 653__ $$aethics 000934102 653__ $$aglobal business 000934102 653__ $$aglobal organizations 000934102 653__ $$ainternational accounting 000934102 653__ $$ainternational finance 000934102 653__ $$ainternational management 000934102 653__ $$ainternational marketing 000934102 653__ $$aphilosophy 000934102 653__ $$aself-actualization 000934102 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000934102 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781606498644 000934102 830_0 $$a2014 digital library. 000934102 830_0 $$aInternational business collection.$$x1948-2760 000934102 852__ $$bebk 000934102 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1659650$$zOnline Access 000934102 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:934102$$pGLOBAL_SET 000934102 980__ $$aBIB 000934102 980__ $$aEBOOK 000934102 982__ $$aEbook 000934102 983__ $$aOnline
