Conference Proceedings 3rd International Conference On Contemporary Business

"The conference theme, "Engagement and Change: Managing in a Free Trade Environment", was selected as it reflects a critical issue currently facing businesses in our region. Change is now a given as businesses and economies struggle to come to terms with the pace and complexities of rapid globalisation. Economic, political, social and cultural changes are affecting the business environment in ways that no nation or business can avoid. Business academics have an obligation to seek to understand our changing business environment and facilitate economic growth and business performance."--Note from the editors.
