INFORMATION
But building a startup as a global
business requires managers with skills
and strategy much different from their
predecessors of even a generation
ago. If you are a global entrepreneur,
says Harvard Business School
Associate Professor William R. Kerr,
“you have to think much earlier and
much faster.”
