International Business Management: Agility Journey for High-Tech Companies

Global-Integration and Local-Responsiveness (IR) framework with four pairs of external environment and appropriate international strategy types has contributed significantly to international business management. Nevertheless, the framework is still incomplete and lacks dynamic features. To deal with such limitations and enhance the theory, this paper, therefore, brings dynamic features regarding both environment and strategy into the IR grid. Under a dynamic capability angle with three steps of sensing, seizing and transforming [30], the dynamic global integration and local responsiveness framework – a new concept building for international business – would be explicated.

Different Dimensions

The notion of competitiveness receives growing attention in the tourism literature as it is recognized as a central factor for success in the visitor economy. Despite the enthusiasm for the promised benefits of this approach, there are gaps in understanding the limits and possibilities of making the destination competitive by attracting visitors and expanding their spending, providing a satisfying experience. We study international business tourism in Sao Paulo city to empirically explore how length of stay determines different dimensions of tourist satisfaction. Estimates indicate that length of stay negatively affects the satisfaction dimensions studied. Likewise, there is no evidence of the existence of a curvilinear relationship between these variables. Implications for policy makers and business management are presented.

Political Economic

To date there has been little to no widespread, universally accepted and theoretically driven examination of what an emerging market is and how best to capture its principle characteristics. Major international organizations, institutions, and scholars, all classify these countries utilizing a multitude of different perspectives. Applying institutional theory as a framework yet bowing to the unique pervasiveness of culture research, this study develops a more nuanced reclassification of emerging markets. Utilizing cluster analysis and dendogram interpretation, the application of this multidimensional and multidisciplinary framework results in eight categories of emerging markets and shows how social, political, economic, and spatial can contribute to the emergent status of a country. This study also serves as a vehicle to show how both the institutional and culturalists perspectives on international business management and strategy can be combined. These theoretically grounded findings from the study provide new boundary conditions for national contexts to be applied in future international business research and further inform international management and strategy stakeholders of a means to reduce the clouds of uncertainty surrounding these countries.

TitleMarketing of the dark: “Memento Park” in Budapest.Subject areaMarketing strategy; services marketing; tourism.Study level/applicabilityUpper year undergraduate business/management, MBA, marketing/international business.Case overviewMemento Park is a large open air museum on the outskirts of Budapest, that houses statues, and related ephemera related to the communist period in Hungary. The park opened in 1993, four years after Hungary had shaken off its yolk of communism as part of the Iron Curtain, in 1989. This case presents a classic example of a business enterprise that sprang from a concept and access to inexpensive materials directly resulting form a changing external environment. The case presents the issues involved in making Memento Park a sustainable part of the Budapest tourist experience.Expected learning outcomesThis case challenges students to decide how best to determine a sustainable advantage. Arguably the value proposition that is being offered by Memento Park has a number of identifiable benefits to the target consumer. It is not replicable (at least in Hungary), has a truly unique content, and does not have large fixed or variable costs in terms of operations. The question is how to best develop a plan of attack for such a firm?Supplementary materialsTeaching notes.
