Interpreting Dual Career Couples' Family Life-Cycles: Identifying Strategic Windows Of Global Career Opportunity, Michael Harvey, Nancy Napier, Miriam Moeller
Interpreting Dual Career Couples' Family Life-Cycles: Identifying Strategic Windows Of Global Career Opportunity, Michael Harvey, Nancy Napier, Miriam Moeller
Michael Harvey
Dual career families are more resistant to undertaking expatriate assignments primarily due to the difficulties associated with the trailing spouse not being able to find a job overseas and the potential net financial loss for the couple.

This paper examines some of the particular gender and sociological issues surrounding the dual career expatriate couple, such as family and career Life-Cycles, …

Leaders from the academic and corporate sectors, representing 30 countries, submitted excellent papers on a broad range of ethical issues. This rich …

Ford's Investment In Colonial Malaya, 1926-1957, Shakila P. Yacob Associate Professor
Shakila Yacob
The corporate history of Ford in Malaya from 1926 to 1957 reveals Ford Canada’s global strategy to tap new British colonial markets. A combination of factors motivated Ford Canada to set up a subsidiary in Malaya, whose subsequent domestic sales and marketing success depended on maintaining mutually beneficial relations with the local merchant firms and Chinese entrepreneurs. After it was directed by the parent company to restructure its operations, Ford Canada imposed tight control on its own local operations to ensure that it could meet evolving consumer demands in Malaya and across the wider region. However, the company was careful …
