Impact of international careers in national innovation culture
by Ana M. González Ramos
J. for Global Business Advancement (JGBA), Vol. 7, No. 2, 2014

Abstract: The mobile careers of executives and entrepreneurs may be a primary source of change in organisations as intermediaries in a fruitful innovation culture. This paper explores to what extent managers' international experience may be transferred to R&D and innovation systems. The expected outcome is that international careers do affect management in national organisations, by introducing new practices in line with common values learned abroad. Results of this work sketch some positive changes in business organisations but also some clear evidence of cultural resistance by the staff at national organisations.
