Fish Can't See Water: How National Culture Can Make or Break Your Corporate Strategy ハードカバー – 2013/9/30
購入オプションとあわせ買い
Using extensive case studies of successful global corporations, this book explores the impact of national culture on the corporate strategy and its execution, and through this ultimately business success―or failure. It does not argue that different cultures lead to different business results, but that all cultures impact organizations in ways both positive and negative, depending on the business cycle, the particular business, and the particular strategies being pursued. Depending on all of these factors, cultural dynamics can either enable or derail performance. But recognizing those cultural factors is difficult for business leaders; like everyone else, they too can be blind to the culture of which they are a part.
The book offers managers and leaders eight recommendations for recognizing those cultural factors that negatively impact performance, as well as those that can be harnessed to encourage superior performance. With real case studies from companies in Asia, Europe, and the United States, this book offers a truly global approach to organizational culture.
- Offers a fresh approach to the effects of national culture on organizational culture that is applicable to any country in any region
- Based on case studies of such companies as Toyota, Samsung, General Motors, Nokia, Walmart, Kone and British Leyland
- It describes the origins and nature of the most common corporate crisis and how culture impacts the response to such a crisis
- Ideal for managers, business leaders, and board members, as well as business school students
A welcome response to the flat-Earth fad that argues we're all alike, this book offers a nuanced and practical view of cultural differentiators and how they can enable or derail business performance.

Well done!
Thank you!
I teach the capstone course for the MBA program at the European School of Business. This book fits perfectly into the presentation of this double semester, in depth look at the real world. In the course, “Leadership and Corporate Sustainability”, I avoid most texts. I find them to be a fictionalized look at how people in business and businesses operate. Fish Can’t See Water presents no fictions.
The book takes a double barreled approach, each revolving around culture. In each case the authors present true example after true example of how the “Fish can’t see”. The value of the Lewis model of global culture comes from not only theory, but experience. It relies on nuance rather than pigeon holing the world into a set definition of what the cultures may be.
The book takes the next step of applying the “Fish can’t see” experience to corporate culture, both influenced by home country and by tradition. They are excellent and very applicable examples.
In today’s world, lifecycles of corporations are getting shorter and shorter. Structurally and dynamically, they are not built for sustainability. Today the average life of a member of the S&P 500 has dropped to 20 years, down from over 50 years decades ago. With that in mind, every corporate leader should put “Fish” on their reading list.
The message is interesting in that it does not suggest that we refuse to change, it suggests that we can’t see the need because we swim in our own ocean. Not only don’t we see the other people in their own dynamic, we don’t even see our own dynamic. We let ourselves be insulated from others because we see them through just one type of lens and we don’t take time to measure if that is the correct prescription.
The book uses the Lewis model (from Richard D Lewis' book: When Cultures Collide) to define and describe national types and their uniqueness, complemented by the new Cultural Dynamic model.
The two authors, who come from very different and diverse background, use their two models to explain how national and business cultural influencers impact work and management practices over the business cycle - and through this the effectiveness of strategy execution.
This book confirms the simple truism that "Culture eats strategy for lunch".
The many cases of global corporations such as Sony, Samsung, P&G, GM, Walmart, Nokia and Toyota, are clearly extensively researched.
While the topic of corporate is prone to stereotyping and cliches, the authors manage to convincingly present a new line of thinking in each case to explain how the national culture profoundly impacted the success of these companies - yet, often without the management or board noticing the critical enabling or derailing cultural dynamics.
However, the book is also practical and suggests how Western companies can more effectively deal with other cultures, and how companies can improve their response to the inevitable corporate crises and how each nation face their own unique challenges from globalisation.
Fish Can't See Water: How National Culture Can Make or Break Your Corporate Strategy
The book only scratches the surface of cultural analysis, spending most of its time on case studies to demonstrate the effect culture has on the success of a company. The book is excellent for a manager without much immersion in this subject (such as myself), but it will not be adequate on its own to enable managers to apply what has been learnt.
The style of the book is easy to read, the case studies interesting and the "dimensions" or differences between national cultures illuminating. Highly recommended reading.
