[Pantaleon Fassbender]

Basic stuff for everyone working in international leadership development. Great insights based on sound research. You do not find this very often.

[Debbie (Doc)]

This book was used in one of my doctorate global leadership classes. It is chalk full of valuable information in order to further understand other cultures.
