Summary:
Korea has been going through major changes since 1992, including a
civilian government, opening of financial markets, restructuring of
chaebols, changing roles of women, and new relations with North
Korea. There have also been cultural changes which reflect on the
Korean way of doing business and of living. The knowledge and skills
for coping with these changes need to be mastered by those who want
to interact with Koreans. The need for interpersonal relationships
and good communication should be emphasized. Case studies and
examples are used to illustrate effective transcultural management
and communications. This is a reference to understanding changing
cultures and business practices in Korea for scholars, and a
comprehensive guide to Korean business practice, protocol, and
communications styles for professionals. Western professionals doing
business in Korea will find this material important in their business
operations, communications, and interpersonal relations with Koreans.
Other Asian business professionals will find the work useful in
providing an insight to both the Western and Korean cultures.
Scholars and students in Asian studies, Korean studies, and
international business areas will find beneficial information.
