Description and Reviews
From The Publisher:

We have gathered nearly 100 interviews with Europe�s top business leaders who will add their voices to the over 20 years of experience drawn from working with companies around the world about the future of business and the world in the new millennium. We will explore the complexity of the business environment and the teamwork now required in this traditionally hierarchical European business framework. We will also hear about the evolution of culture as companies with operations in different countries, with different historical biases, attempt to build corporate cultures that break down previously defined boundaries. We will see how they create respect for their differences in such a way that they receive a boost from the diversity, from which, in turn, higher purposes emerge. And equally, we will show how an environment can emerge in which European executives can find a balance in their lives, able to work within the eye of the storm while keeping their personal lives vital and fulfilling.

This book will find a home on both sides of the Atlantic, as executives try to find that leg-up on the competition as we move forward into a new millennium.
