Chapter 7 in Global Operations Strategy, 2013, pp 221-242 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter addresses practice across various borders. First, we study the global operations strategy across political separation. Second, we discuss types of cultural separation and study global operations strategy across cultural separation. Third, we analyze costs from physical separation and study global operations strategy across physical separation. Fourth, we analyze global operations strategy across developmental separation. Finally, we discuss global operations strategy across relational separation. In this chapter, we use case examples including Microsoft’s Political Road in China, Culture Separation and DaimlerChrysler, Physical Separation of Airbus, Tata across Developmental Separation, Guanxi and Operations in China, and a case Subway across Borders to illustrate cross-border global operational practice.
