Review :
Assembling and working with diverse teams is an important challenge in every workplace. This collection of careful studies, with its special attention to culture, helps us to understand what works in cross-national industrial partnerships, and why. This is a work of great significance for managers and social scientists alike. Partnering for Organizational Performance decants the very nature of our global society. Partnering for Organizational Performance is a very valuable and much-needed addition to the literature on partnerships in a globalizing world where partnerships are not only desirable, but necessary. The authors perceptively describe and analyze eight in-depth case studies using anthropological and business-focused concepts, as well as providing interdisciplinary insights. This is a highly readable text that employs imaginative frames of reference for each case study and concludes with a very useful section on 'lessons learned.'
