General Managers of the South-Pacific

Dr. Reddy introduces the reader to the managerial environment of the island nations of the South Pacific and in so doing draws a vivid picture of the work situation for general managers in the said region. The perspective of Reddy’s work is decidedly non-European/non-American and therefore differs from most literature within this topic. This book presents a study of managers’ work in the islands of Fiji, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Kiribati and Tonga. The author travelled to all of these islands and studied managers in their own workspace, thus providing a firsthand impression of their situation. For those who work or intend to work in a managerial position in the islands of the South Pacific, Dr. Reddy emphasizes the importance of having an awareness and knowledge of local cultures. This book provides advice and guidance in this regard.
