Cross-Cultural Management: With Insights from Brain Science explores a broad range of topics on the impact of culture in international business and vice versa, and the impact of businesses and individuals in shaping a culture. It provides critical and in-depth information on globalization, global/glocal leadership, cross-cultural marketing, and cross-cultural negotiation. It also discusses many other topics that are not typically found in the mainstream management textbooks such as diversity management, bias management, cross-cultural motivation strategies, and change management. While most literature in the field is dominated by the static paradigm, that is, culture is fixed, nation equates to culture, and values are binary, this book takes a different approach. It regards national values as a first-best-guess and balances it with an introduction of the dynamic paradigm. This school of thought posits that culture is not static, context is the software of the mind, opposing values coexist, change is constant, and individuals can develop a multicultural mind. A unique feature of this book is the contribution of an interdisciplinary approach. It’s the first textbook of cross-cultural management that incorporates latest findings from the emerging discipline of cultural neuroscience and evolutionary biology in the discussion. Such a holistic approach is meant to help readers gain a deeper and broader understanding of the subjects.

King of Vegas: I witness a crime I have no business seeing. Now I’m in the clutches of a powerful and deadly mafia boss. From the moment he comes into the Dollhouse, he won’t take his eyes off me. He might be just what I need. A big spender to help me with my money issues. There’s just one problem. This is no average man. This is Giovanni Sorrentino, the new King of Vegas. When I stumble on something I shouldn’t, I realize I’m in big trouble. Now it’s more than just money on the line. I’m a goner unless I accept his deal—vow to be his, and I get to live. But how long will it be before this savage King tires of his new toy? Queen of Hearts: I’ve won the crown, but the war is far from over. My brother wants to take everything from me…my crime empire, my throne, my woman. My father’s made his decision: he’s chosen me as the King of the Sorrentino empire. But my twin brother, Giancarlo, is not giving up the throne without a fight. Blood means nothing when it’s your brother across enemy lines. He not only seeks to steal my crown, but he wants to make my Queen his too. There’s only one way this war between brothers ends—with one of us not making it out alive. Kingdom of Sin: Savage Mafia King. Billionaire Businessman. Husband of five years. The man I’ve come to hate… When we said, “I do”, it was supposed to mean Forever. It’s funny what a few years can change. Giovanni Sorrentino, the man I fell deeply in love with, has become a stranger to me. With an empire that grows by the day, he’s a modern-day King—a Tyrant addicted to power, ruling by fear and domination. He’s even worse behind closed doors. Cold, callous, and cruel, he’s unbearable. For my own sanity, I can’t do it anymore. I have to get away. But my dominant Mafia King husband refuses to let me go so easily. We made a vow ’til death; one he fully intends on seeing through to the bitter end. It’s a dangerous game I’m playing, attempting to escape his wrath. This time, if he catches me, there will be no mercy to be had.
"Demographic and technological trends have yielded new forms of work that are increasingly more precarious, globalized, and brand centered. Some of these shifts have led to a marked decrease in the visibility of work or workers. This edited collection examines situations in which technology and employment practices hide labor within the formal paid labor market, with implications for workplace activism, social policy, and law. In some cases, technological platforms, space, and temporality hide workers and sometimes obscure their tasks as well. In other situations, workers may be highly visible--indeed, the employer may rely upon the workers' aesthetics to market the branded product--but their aesthetic labor is not seen as work. In still other cases, the work occurs within a social interaction and appears as leisure--a voluntary or chosen activity--rather than as work. Alternatively, the workers themselves may be conceptualized as consumers rather than as workers. Crossing the occupational hierarchy and spectrum from high- to low-waged work, from professional to manual labor, and from production to service labor, the authors argue for a broader understanding of labor in the contemporary era. This book adopts an interdisciplinary approach that integrates perspectives from law, sociology, and industrial/labor relations"--Provided by publisher.
