This model, \"the Elastic Employment Contract\" integrates well-known variables from the fields of international management, compensation and principal-agent theory. This study contributes to the literature on international management and to the research methods for studying international business. Its conclusions bring an interesting economic result to light and are very relevant for readers concerned with managerial compensation. The Elastic Employment Contract described in this book is an efficient internal mechanism for MNCs that want to promote a constant flow of knowledge with positive value between subsidiaries; it will help them design more effective employment contracts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amir Shoham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 363914032X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639140323\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/17\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Amir Shoham","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440355684607,"sku":"9783639140323","price":52.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_273c3265-791c-4eec-8268-8268aa41acf9.jpg?v=1777181901","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/managing-knowledge-flows-in-mncs-amir-shoham-9783639140323","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
