"This is an exemplary case-book on an increasingly crucial and important topic. It provides deep insights into the complexities, opportunities and pitfalls of transnational and intercultural projects. It offers hands-on expertise as well as concept-based reflections on practices and experiences and thus proves to be an excellent learning companion. It can be recommended highly to project managers as well as internationally responsible general managers."
Helmut Willke, Zeppellin University Friedrichshafen
