Edición de la obra The Japanese advantage?

While Japanese management has proved highly skilled in exploiting product and process technology, the authors argue that the situation with information technology is different. They demonstrate how Japanese organizations apply, view, invest in and implement IT, and suggest what organizations, both Western and Japanese, could learn from their experience. Western and Japanese companies are beginning to fight major strategic battles in Europe and the authors describe ways in which Western companies could exploit weaknesses in Japanese IT strategy. At the same time they suggest how Japanese companies, especially their European divisions, might sharpen their edge.
