The Global Brand: How to Create and Develop Lasting Brand Value in the World Market

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Rapid advances in modern technology present companies with quickly expanding marketing opportunities, but they also create an over-saturated business landscape that both helps and hurts brands. In this thorough investigation of brand strength in the accelerated modern business world, Nigel Hollis draws on his experience at Millward Brown to present a simple formula for determining brand strength based on two axes, Presence (or familiarity) and Voltage (or marketing appeal), to illustrate the market value and performance of brands. He analyzes the five steps of customer commitment to a strong brand--Presence, Relevance, Performance, Advantage, and Bonding. Finally, Hollis emphasizes human nature as a set of constant core values that all brands should appeal to, and analyzes the future of brand-building as a profitable investment. [detailed...]

The Global Challenge for Multinational Enterprises

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hardbound. This book examines the relationship between multinational firms and emerging markets, a relationship which has changed profoundly in the period from the 1950`s to the late 1990`s. Governments and multinational firms have moved from a situation of conflict to one where government policies were seen as a constraint on the activities of MNE`s, and finally to an era of cooperation. This relationship has been reflected in (and driven by) academic writing on the subject, of which this book is a selection of the best examples. The readings in part one show how the critical conflictual elements of the relationship were emphasized in the period 1950 to 1975. Latterly, writing has emphasized cooperation, even harmony, and writers have pointed out that free trade based on cooperative advantage can bring benefits for all. The most profound change in the world economy in the early post-war period was the emergence of successive waves of Asian `newly [detailed...]

The Global Challenge to Industrial Districts: Small and Medium Sized Enterprises in Italy and Taiwan

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The current trend towards globalization is posing a substantial challenge to SME clusters to restructure and reach out to distant markets and knowledge sources, while at the same time exploiting the advantages of local factors and agglomeration. This book represents a first attempt to analyze these issues in detail, employing novel empirical evidence. The authors focus on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Italy and Taiwan, two countries in which these businesses characterize the national industrial structure. They find that in the current climate of globalization, there is no best practice model for organizing an industrial cluster since a diversity of successful institutional arrangements is possible. They demonstrate that over time SME clusters can evolve and that globalization can reshape their upgrading options by providing a variety of international knowledge linkages. Thus, the authors conclude that the development of local and global networks and new interactive… [detailed...]

These profiles provide: major performance indicators, each economy`s rank in competitiveness, and highlights of particular strengths and weaknesses.

The Global Corporation

Publisher: —
Description: The globalization of business has ended `corporate colonialism` in international commerce, and out of this has emerged what the author calls the `global corporation.` Differing in many important ways from the now obsolete `multinational corporation` it is replacing, the global corporation is actually a network of independent entrepreneurs, liberated from the control of headquarters, and thus able to implement a new vision of the overall enterprise, its competitive strategies, and how it coordinates and communicates within itself. The author carefully delineates the subtle distinctions among concepts that are often taken, mistakenly, as synonyms for globalization, such as multinationalization, and elicits the implications these distinctions have for the management of international business.

Of real concern, however, is the `hidden crisis`, which has been inadvertently engineered by neoliberal economists who dominate the world`s financial institutions. They are the global crisis makers, who have convinced governments to abandon strategic leadership and to impose crippling deflationary policies. By employing the innovative theoretical empirical work published in his recent series of remarkable books, Graeme Snooks shows how this threat to progress and liberty can be overcome. [detailed...]
