Abstract

This book is based on papers presented at a conference on the theme of Global Change held at Manchester Metropolitan University in 1996. The conference covered a wide range of topics in areas connected to changes in the international business environment. Sir Bob Reid, formerly chairman of Shell UK, gave a personal view on the major changes in the world business environment that were affecting the business community, and outlined some of the major challenges that were posed by global change. Experts in the areas of East Asia and Central and Eastern Europe provided overviews of the changes that were taking place in these regions. This book has been constructed from the three main themes of the conference which were focused on the implications of global change for: company strategy, technological change and organizational change.
