Designing Global Strategies: Comparative and Competitive Value-Added Chains\u003c\/b\u003e (Bruce Kogut).\u003cbr\u003e The key to developing a global strategy is identifying the activities of the value chain that give the company its distinctive competitive advantage and then using the differences in comparative advantage across locations to enhance that advantage.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2. Global Strategy . . . in a World of Nations?\u003c\/b\u003e (George S. Yip).\u003cbr\u003e Competitive advantage comes not just from expanding into many locations but also from integrating across locations; however, the pay-off from cross-border integration can vary across industries, depending on the strength of the various drivers of globalization.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3. Lean Production in an International Supply Chain\u003c\/b\u003e (David L. Levy).\u003cbr\u003e Combining global sourcing with a lean production strategy requires managers to focus attention on certain elements of lean production, such as design-for-manufacture and strong quality efforts, while relaxing other practices, such as zero inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4. Prepare Your Company for Global Pricing\u003c\/b\u003e (Das Narayandas, John A. Quelch, and Gordon Swartz).\u003cbr\u003e In order to create value from global pricing contracts, suppliers need to proactively understand the potential benefits and the potential risks for their customers as well as for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5. New Strategies in Emerging Markets\u003c\/b\u003e (David J. Arnold and John A. Quelch).\u003cbr\u003e Local knowledge is particularly crucial in emerging markets where such knowledge can help the global firm not only in penetrating these markets but also in capitalizing on opportunities for innovation and reverse learning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6. Global Sustainability and the Creative Destruction of Industries\u003c\/b\u003e (Stuart L. Hart and Mark B. Milstein).\u003cbr\u003e Building global advantage while pursuing sustainable development requires the development of different strategies for the three different types of markets: developed economies, emerging market economies, and survival economies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART TWO\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e: BUILDING AND MANAGING THE GLOBAL NETWORK.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7.

Bartlett and Sumantra Ghoshal).\u003cbr\u003e Corporate headquarters can no longer control all interactions in a hub-and-spoke mode but must move toward systems that coordinate cross-unit networks and that elicit the cooperation of subsidiary managers—rather than ordering it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e8. Making Global Strategies Work\u003c\/b\u003e (W. Chan Kim and Renée A.

Subsidiary Initiatives to Develop New Markets\u003c\/b\u003e (Julian M. Birkinshaw and Joseph N.

Building an Effective Global Business Team\u003c\/b\u003e (Vijay Govindarajan and Anil K. Gupta).\u003cbr\u003e Networks across subsidiaries are often built and managed through global business teams. Building and managing such teams involves three key challenges: defining the team charter, choosing team members, and managing the team process.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e11. Negotiating with “Romans”\u003c\/b\u003e (Stephen E. Weiss).\u003cbr\u003e The choice of a negotiation strategy should depend not just on the identity of the negotiator and the counterparts from the other culture but also on mutual familiarity. A spirit of continuous learning—about oneself and others—is central to cultivating cross-cultural negotiating expertise.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e12. Developing Leaders for the Global Frontier\u003c\/b\u003e (Hal B. Gregersen, Allen J. Morrison, and J. Stewart Black)\u003cbr\u003e Global leaders are both born and made.
