International Management Managing Across Borders And Cultures Text And Cases Tenth Edition – Helen Deresky Professor Emerita

Andreas had James Wu, Head of the IT at DeltX, on a teleconference. “Hi James, the team are all gathered this morning,” Andreas reassured. “The information systems and the cyber defense teams need to work closer together and pay more at- tention to the situation to contain it, especially as attacks are becoming more frequent and causing more damage.” James admitted, “The virus is believed to be ransomware – one of these pieces of software that shut down a computer sys- tem, and the perpetrators have already demanded a huge sum of money to fix the problem.
We need to act quickly.” Eunice asked, “Do we know who is behind the latest at- tack? Our American and British analysts believe the attack ear- lier this month was carried out by North Korea.” Andreas said, “We don’t know yet, but one thing is for sure: we need to come up with a smart solution.” After an hour, the team, which was made up of software experts mostly Eunice’s age, had come up with a solution to prevent the cyber thieves siphoning off any more personal in- formation and they were able to put the new measures in place.
The problem was fixed for now. Andreas was not convinced. “Our promise is to deliver real lasting benefits for our clients, so we need to reduce the likeli- hood of it happening again.” Eunice was head-hunted for the job because of her ex- perience managing a diverse international team on a number of security projects in Singapore. Cybot had a good reputa- tion as firms go; it fosters a collaborative culture for people to work in as well as an innovative and dynamic environ- ment.
Andreas convinced her the move to Zurich is a good career move offering a great opportunity to work in a cutting- edge state-of-the-art company, with a talented team of young professionals from around the world. Yet, she was only too aware the move to Zurich meant she would be far away from Singapore, her family, and friends. Eunice was one of the youngest project managers in her company, and for a woman to reach that position so early on in her career was highly unusual.
