Book excerpt: Since organizations and industries are the catalysts for sustainable development, managing organizations and industries along with resource protection dilemmas is critical for developing countries. This volume brings together contributions from experts and new researchers on managerial dilemmas in developing countries, and is divided into five parts: namely, organizational development; human resource management; consumer behaviour; finance; and tourism and hospitality. The chapters in the first section provide empirical insights into e-learning systems, information systems for decision-making processes, business reengineering, and performance efficiency. The second part explores the role of human resource, organization downsizing, work-life balance, fair treatment and a good working environment, job satisfaction and job stress, the big five personality traits, and psychological contract and employment. The next section investigates bank interest rates, insurance policies, organic foods in consumer behaviour, and a marketing value chain analysis of cinnamon. Studies of the effect of financial development, foreign direct investment on economic and endogenous growth, and the effect of institutional excellence and information efficiency on stock market development make up the fourth part of the book. The fifth section then embraces studies of the impact of tourist guides on tourist satisfaction, the behavioural characteristics of solo female travellers, community participation in tourism, and the unplanned development of tourism.

Designed for business school courses and in-house company training programs, this companion to Managing in Developing Countries presents 35 case studies organized around Professor Austin's Environmental Analysis Framework, a powerful, field-tested tool designed to help managers examine, prepare for and compete in the Third World business environment. Through comprehensive and thoroughly tested classroom-tested cases, Austin systematically examines the economic, political, and cultural factors of each country at international, national, industry, and company levels. The cases also reveal the critical strategic issues and operating problems that managers will encounter in developing countries--in governmental relations, finance, marketing, production, and organization.

Book excerpt: Tavis, editor and co-editor of the series' first four volumes, summarizes his views on that issue and discusses at length not only the serious development gap between industrialized and developing countries, but also the widening gap within the developing countries themselves. He demonstrates how the institutions and individuals that are tied to the global economic/financial system must face the facts of bifurcated opportunities and separate them from the rhetoric on all sides.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers management theories and approaches specifically in the context of developing countries. In recent years, international business scholarship has increased its focus on the developing world, which represents 80 percent of the global population and has doubled its share of value-added trade in the past two decades. This text will help readers to manage successfully in this region by learning to assess, apply, and adapt established practices in developing countries. Punnett begins by identifying the characteristics of the developing world—Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, India, Latin America, and the Middle East—and the companies therein to help students understand how the reality of these countries influences business and management. By tracking a fictional product through the internationalization process, students will navigate the challenges of operating an international company from a developing country base, using a traditional model of management focused on planning, organizing, staffing, leading, and controlling. They will also gain insight into ethical considerations likely to arise, such as differential treatment based on personal characteristics and age dispersion. Cases, discussion questions, personal stories, and end-of-chapter exercises will help readers to grapple with issues and test their learning. Complete with chapter objectives and "Lessons Learned" boxes to facilitate understanding, Managing in Developing Countries is an excellent supplement for international business or international management students with a special interest in the developing world.
