Readers will benefit from invaluable research and its practical applications in the following areas: patterns of change in the global economy and implications for decision-making at local and national levels; risks deriving from globalization and how these affect policy responses; governance and its special role in leadership particularly in crisis situations. providing genuine examples from a variety of industries, firms, governments, and geographies, the book's innovative approaches are directly applicable to development finance, infrastructure, health, and agriculture." --book cover
