Call No. 658.4012 GHE-R Acc. No. 8181, 8599, 8629, 8630

New Tools for Succeeding Globally. Why do so many global strategies

fail--despite companies' powerful brands and other border-crossing

advantages? Because a one-size-fits-all strategy no longer stands a

chance. When firms believe in the illusions of a "flat" world and the death

of distance, they charge across borders as if the globe were one seamless

marketplace. But cross-border differences are larger than we assume.

Most economic activity--including trade, real and financial investment,

tourism, and communication happens locally, not internationally. In this

"semi globalized" approach, companies can cross borders more profitably by basing their

strategies on the geopolitical differences that matter; they must identify the barriers their

strategies will have to overcome, and they must build bridges to cross those barriers. Based

on rigorous research. Assess the cultural, administrative, geographic, and economic

differences between regions at the industry level and decide which ones require attention,

"Redefining Global Strategy" will help you make the most of our semi globalized world.

soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the

most impulsive decision of her life: to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the

Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State -- and

to do it alone. She had no experience as a long-distance hiker, and the trail

was little more than "an idea, vague and outlandish and full of promise."

But it was a promise of piecing back together a life that had come undone.

Strayed faces down rattlesnakes and black bears, intense heat and record

snowfalls, and both the beauty and loneliness of the trail on a journey that maddened,

strengthened, and ultimately healed her
