Recommendation

Noel Capon, Dave Potter and Fred Schindler claim that how corporations manage their global accounts will determine nothing less than their “success and organizational survival in the 21st century.” The authors present in reasonably clear (though not always grammatical) language the essentials of global account management. Stories at the beginnings of the chapters demonstrate the importance of the issues, and helpful summaries at the ends recapitulate the authors’ main points. This is a practitioner’s guide, straightforward and detailed. getAbstract recommends it to global account managers as well as to managers of sales and marketing units who are considering instituting a global account management program.

Take-Aways

  • Global account management superficially resembles “regular” account management.
  • However, global customers present unique challenges.
  • Evaluate which customers to include in your global account management program.
