Version covering more "advanced" case studies from Harold Kerzner. Again, my challenge on this book because the companies he talks are not necessarily huge international enterprises so it is hard to make comparisons. But is a very good book.

Versão cobrindo estudos de caso mais "Avançados" escritos por Harold Kerzner. Novamente, desafio no livro está relacionado as organizações que ele apresenta. Normalmente elas não são grandes conglomerados e é difícil fazer comparações. Mas é um livro muito bom.
