Recognizing and taking advantage of strategic opportunities, such as entering and operating in foreign markets

Building and leading effective international teams, including personal and behavioral motivation, as well as taking an international perspective on the hiring, training, and development of employees

These principles are emphasized in the text with current examples and practical applications, establishing a foundation for students to apply their understanding in the current global business environment.
