The Mindful International Manager tackles the management situations that international managers have to handle every day. Accessible and jargon-free it explains how to clarify local vs. international roles, support and develop a team, organize and coordinate boundaries of time and distance, and win commitment toward common goals. The authors, both interculturalists, include exercises and best practice advice and the experiences and insights of practising international managers. They combine their practical approach with great depth of insight into the challenges of working and managing internationally and include the results of new research findings and cutting-edge case studies on topics such as leadership, global nomads, virtual teams, coaching and mentoring across cultures and decision-making.

"Conversational and immediately accessible to anyone who is new to the content... great care has been taken in these pages to talk the way people talk in the real world and to relate theory to practice." Craig Storti, writer and cross-cultural trainer, author of The Art of Crossing Cultures, Speaking of India and many more bestsellers "Managers in all areas are under pressure to act with increasing certainty in a business environment that is increasingly uncertain. As this book demonstrates with rigorous but accessible advice, mindfulness is one of the keys to resolving this paradox. If managers can be more aware of their own behaviour and the behaviour of others, they will be better able to take advantages of the possibilities open to them. This book provides managers with practical advice and case-studies and, above all, with food for thought for those who want to improve their international effectiveness." Ian McMaster, Editor-in-chief, Business Spotlight Magazine

"This is not only a valuable handbook for managers who work in international or intercultural contexts; it is also ideal for those who are soon to do so. Comfort and Franklin's lucid exposition of key concepts, their judicious use of relevant case studies and their emphasis on best practice combine to make this an optimal textbook for my graduate students in international courses of study. This book definitely belongs in students' backpacks as well as in managers' briefcases." James R Chamberlain, Bonn-Sieg University of Applied Sciences, Germany
