Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to announce the publication of the eleven volume set,
Culturally Sensitive Models of Family Business. This Compendium
uses GLOBE's ten cultural clusters of the world (Anglo Region, Confucian
Asia, Eastern Europe, Germanic Europe, Latin America, Latin Europe,
Middle East, Nordic Europe, Southern Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa) to
address the commonality as well as differences in family businesses
around the world. While a growing body of knowledge about different
cultures exists, it tends to be centered on a few cultures (e.g.,
Anglo) and is dispersed throughout a wide array of publication outlets. The
purpose of this Compendium is to examine and highlight the various
cultures from around the world in one single resource to make it
readily accessible to scholars, students, and practitioners. A special volume
on gender in family business rounds out the set.
"The Compendium is a timely and major contribution. It is a great
resource for scholars and students interested in understanding the
diversity and uniqueness of family firms around the world. Family
business practitioners and policy makers seeking to enhance global
collaborations and creating sustainable families, communities, and
businesses will find this an invaluable resource."
Pramodita Sharma, Ph.D.

"As an integral first phase for a broader research program, C.A.S.E.
(Culturally-Sensitive Assessment System and Education), it offers
comparative cultural analysis of family businesses and
culturally-sensitive tools to create more successful families,
businesses, and communities worldwide."

The Compendium is intended to open a new stream of inquiry in the
growing field of family business. We encourage you to share this
