Abstract

A number of Caribbean companies are already operating on a regional basis, and the advent of the Caribbean Single Market and Economy (CSME) will encourage firms to address business opportunities on a regional basis, and to adopt regional management practices. Companies may find it efficient to produce in one location and supply the entire region, and a company might find it best to provide uniform management training to all its managers throughout the region, rather than on a country-by-country basis.
