The Changing Face of Korean Management

The influence of Asian political, economic and social traditions has often been used to explain Korean management. This book examines a range of areas of Korean management in these contexts, exploring the opportunities and challenges for managers in the Korean context and presenting an update on management developments using many experts with high Korean experience. The chapters cover both functional areas and key issues specific to managing in Korean and provide consistent detailed coverage of each theme. This includes surveys and interviews with management practitioners in the areas covered to develop and allow the Series' concept of 'voice' ' of management practitioners ' to come through. They also include case studies at the firm level and of individual managers, questions for review and discussion, exercises, chapter summaries, bibliography, glossary and boxed features.
