Summary "Globalization is often held responsible for downsizing and increasing stress of competition. However, the opportunity to secure jobs and to strengthen one's own business and competitive situation lies in globalization itself. Professional global sourcing not only strengthens the entrepreneurial profit potential, but also strengthens the development and quality potential, which can be realized by sourcing from competent international suppliers. Kerkhoff encourages to regard the unstoppable globalization as an opportunity, and to ensure early competitive advantage. Practical examples and recommendations by the procurement expert Kerkhoff help conduct successful operations on the international stage of procurement."--BOOK JACKET
