INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT<br />
See the global picture. International Management deals with business activities that span continents<br />
and cultures.<br />
New Zealand businesses must learn to operate effectively<br />
in countries with different economic, cultural, political,<br />
legal and technological environments. International<br />
management teaches you how to analyse international<br />
business environments and to develop effective strategies<br />
for entering and servicing international markets.<br />
Alongside management papers, you’ll learn or continue<br />
to learn a foreign language. These skills prepare you for a<br />
range of careers in the commercial sector, notably in export<br />
and international management, and in finance, government<br />
departments and tourism.<br />

“I'm from Santiago, Chile. I’m here because I’ve got a ‘Chiwi’<br />
(Chilean / Kiwi) husband! My research focuses on how foreign direct<br />
investment impacts local industry in Chile. I'm doing case studies of<br />
foreign-owned firms operating in Chile to understand factors that<br />
influence their decisions to establish linkages with local firms.<br />
Not all foreign direct investment is the same. Some comes in and<br />
goes straight back out again in repatriated profits. Other foreign<br />
investors forge links with local firms – and stronger links mean<br />
more chances for the local firm to upgrade its processes. I hope my<br />
research will help the Chilean Government identify the foreign direct<br />
investment that’s most beneficial for local firms, and attract and<br />
maintain this investment.”<br />
