Anil K. Gupta, Vijay Govindarajan, and Haiyan Wang are among the most distinguished experts in the field of globalization. In The Quest for Global Dominance they present the lessons from their twenty-year study of over two hundred corporations. They argue that, in order for a company to create and maintain its position as a globally dominant player, executives must ensure that their company leads its industry in the following four essential tasks: 
<ul>
<li>Identifying market opportunities worldwide and pursuing them by establishing the necessary presence in all key markets</li> <li>Converting global presence into global competitive advantage by identifying and developing the opportunities for value creation that global presence offers</li> <li>Cultivating a global mindset by viewing cultural and geographic diversity as an opportunity, not just a challenge</li> <li>Leveraging the rise of emerging markets especially China and India to transform the company's growth prospects, global cost structure, and pace of innovation</li> </ul>

This book is the first strategic guide for multi-national corporations (MNCs)who are contemplating expanding into both China and India. Gupta and Wang explain how many MNCs view China and India solely from the lens of off-shoring and cost-reduction, and focusing their marketing strategies on only the top 5-10% of the population. This is a missed opportunity. China and India are the only two countries that constitute four realities that are strategically crucial for the global enterprise: 
<ul>
<li>Both provide mega-markets for almost every product and service</li> <li>Both have platforms that will dramatically reduce the company's global cost structure</li> <li>Both have platforms that will significantly boost the company's global technology and innovation base</li> <li>Both are springboards for the mergence of new fearsome global competitors.</li> </ul>
This book aims to shed light on the brutal competition for markets and resources in China and India as well as lays out the strategic action implications for those companies who want to emerge as the global players of tomorrow.

The twin forces of ideological change and technology revolution are making globalization one of the most important strategic and organizational issues facing companies today. With every passing day, it is becoming more obvious that managers must view every industry as a global industry and every business as a knowledge business. As worldwide presence becomes a strategic imperative rather than a discretionary choice, an increasing number of companies must confront the essential question: How do we engineer and exploit the ongoing globalization of our industry? Anil K. Gupta and Vijay Govindarajan's Global Strategy and Organization is designed to help students and managers learn how to address this important question. The book focuses on the four tasks that are essential for any company to emerge and stay as a global leader in its industry: <ul>
<li> Identify market opportunities worldwide and pursue those opportunities by establishing the necessary presence in all key markets</li> <li> Convert global presence into global competitive advantage</li> <li> Cultivate a global mindset in order to recognize and exploit good ideas wherever they arise</li> <li> Strive to reinvent the rules of the global game</li>
</ul>

Global Strategy and Organization

The current transformation of isolated state-dominated economies into market-driven globally integrated economies is creating business challenges and opportunities around the globe. Over the last ten years, these authors have studied over one hundred global corporations through a variety of research methods and here distill their findings into four essential goals that executives must achieve in order to transform a company into a global success: Identify and pursue opportunities in key markets. Convert global presence into global competitive advantage. Cultivate a global mindset in order to recognize and exploit good ideas wherever they arise. And constantly reinvent the global game by creating value for customers. Case studies involving Yahoo!, Wal-Mart, and other global players show how the authors' findings can be applied in real-world situations.

Smart Globalization is a compendium of leading-edge thinking on global strategy first published in the acclaimed MIT Sloan Management Review. The central premise underlying this book is that globalization can be a double-edged sword. The global or globalizing firm has the potential to reap several types of benefits such as the vast potential of a much larger market arena, opportunities to capture scale- and location-based cost efficiencies, and exposure to a multiplicity of new product and process ideas. However, globalization also exposes the firm to numerous strategic and organizational challenges emanating from a dramatic increase in diversity, complexity, and uncertainty - external as well as internal to the firm. How managers address these challenges determines whether globalization yields competitive advantage or disadvantage and makes the company stronger or weaker. "Smart" globalization is the ability to capture the benefits and minimize the costs and risks.

Global Strategies for Emerging Asia

A roadmap for understanding the business challenges and opportunities in China By 2025, China and India will be two of the world's four largest economies. By then, economic ties between them should also rank among the ten most important bilateral ties worldwide. Their leaders are well aware of these emerging realities. In May 2013, just two months after taking charge, Premier Li Keqiang left for India on his first official trip outside China, a clear signal of China's foreign policy priorities. The Silk Road Rediscovered is the first book ever to analyze the growing corporate linkages between India and China. Did you know that: <ul>
<li>India's Mahindra is the fifth largest tractor manufacturer in China?</li> <li>Tata Motors' Jaguar Land Rover unit is the fastest growing luxury auto seller in China?</li> <li>India's NIIT is the most influential IT training brand in China?</li> <li>China's Huawei has its second largest R&amp;D center in Bangalore and employs over 5000 people in India?</li> <li>Shanghai Electric earns its largest revenues outside China from India?</li> </ul>
As these developments illustrate, pioneering Indian and Chinese companies are rediscovering the fabled Silk Road which joined their nations in ancient times. Winning in each other's markets is also making them stronger and whetting their appetite for further global expansion. This book examines how Indian companies such as Tata Consultancy Services, Mahindra Tractors, NIIT, Tata Motors/Jaguar Land Rover and Sundaram Fasteners have figured out how to win in China. Their experiences may inspire and offer lessons to other Indian companies. The book also examines how Chinese pioneers such as Lenovo, Huawei, TBEA, Haier and Xinxing have made a strong commitment to India and are beginning to realize the fruits of this commitment. The key lessons that emerge from these analyses are: the odds of success go up dramatically when executives adopt a global rather than local-for-local perspective and are skillful at learning on the ground.
