The Role of the Subsidiary in International Business
Reflecting on the evolving organisation of multinational enterprises (MNEs) and their growing presence in international business, this book focuses on value creation by subsidiaries in transition economies, and uses Poland as an example. Drawing on internalisation and business network theory, the author analyses the role of the subsidiary with the aim of explaining the mechanisms of subsidiary functional specialisation and its operationalisation. The book presents an innovative model illustrating the determinants of the functional responsibilities of subsidiaries, whilst providing an empirical analysis of foreign subsidiaries in Poland. Addressing a vital topic in international business and management studies, this Palgrave Pivot will be useful for researchers, students and practitioners.

Critical Risks of Different Economic Sectors
This book explores the major differences between the kinds of risk encountered in different sectors of industry - production (including agriculture) and services - and identifies the main features of accidents within different industries. Because of these differences, unique risk-mitigation measures will need to be implemented in one industry that cannot be implemented in another, leading to large managerial differences between these broad economic sectors. Based on the analysis of more than 500 disasters, accidents and incidents - around 230 cases from the production sector and around 280 cases from the service sector - the authors compare the risk response actions appropriate within differ...

Standortrollen in Produktionsnetzwerken
Standortrollen unterstützen die zielorientierte Gestaltung von Produktionsnetzwerken, indem sie den Leistungsauftrag von Standorten nach charakteristischen Merkmalen festlegen und so als Orientierungspunkte im Netzwerk dienen. Ein aufeinander abgestimmtes Netzwerk aus spezialisierten Standorten kann die globalen Marktanforderungen damit deutlich besser erfüllen als ein Netzwerk identischer Standorte. Stimmt die strategische Ausrichtung jedoch zwischen den Standorten nicht überein, kann dies zum schleichenden Verlust der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit führen und muss durch eine stimmige Ausrichtung aller Standorte im Netzwerk vermieden werden. Um diese Herausforderungen zu adressieren, stellt dies...
