Globalwork:
Bridging Distance, Culture and Time

Mary O’Hara-Devereaux and Robert Johansen

A timeless practical guide to working in the growing global economy.

Reviews

From "Booklist"

While many of the books on the globalization of business, society, or telecommunications focus on technology, and others consider cultural diversity, few have dealt with both issues simultaneously. The authors discuss the problems of team building and group activities when team or group members are dispersed—separated by time, distance, and cultures. They cover cross-cultural communication, process facilitation, remote teamwork, and the use of information technology to minimize distances and take advantage of differences. While their scope is truly multinational, the authors target the U.S. and its relations with the Pacific Rim nations, Mexico, and Canada.
