Globalisation, multinational enterprises and European integration

Author

  • Gilroy, Bernard Michael

Abstract

The key to success is to institutionalise integrative thinking in your organization and among employees within co-operative yet highly competitive environments. Therefore, the next section of this paper lays out a general discussion of globalisation versus internationalisation in which an attempt is made to get perspectives right based upon casual observation of current stylised facts. Section 3 briefly reviews the international competitiveness of Germany and Europe. Section 4 moves on to a brief outlook and some tentative conclusions.
