For non-HR/OB resources ou may also want to have a look at 'European Business' by Mercado, Welford and Prescott or at 'Global Marketing Management: A European Perspective' by Keegan and Schlegelmilch.

Classic Hofstede is probably not a bad place to start. I find Susan
Schneider and Jean-Louis Barsoux's 2003 book, "Managing Across Cultures"
very good for a European Perspective.

I am taking a group of students to Greece for five weeks this summer (and
hopefully multiple locations next year) and will be teaching an
undergraduate special topics course on European Management. I find that
texts on general international management are too broad. I will probably
take an HR/OB slant on things, but welcome other input.
I am asking the members of this list for suggested books and articles to
assign students that provide insight into this topic. Popular press books
or articles along with academic sources are welcome.
Of course I do realize that there are differences between
countries/identity groups within Europe, however I would particularly like
the students to understand some of the major socio-cultural differences
between many American managers and European managers, and the systems
within which they work.
The recent growth and subsequent emphasis on Asia has produced a plethora
of material for that region, and I am hoping for some suggested recent
publications on the EU side.
I will summarize responses back to this list.
Thanks,
